yo, sry 4 the late reply, yea, the dying trend seems to have slowed from my semi-flush earlier, however, i got a ph-tester kit today and was displeased to find my water is like 7+ so yea, gotta adjust that.

Hmm put them in a filled tub for half an hour then flush? Never heard of that on, i could see why it would work though, it seems to me like it would be more stressful on them, but i think ill try it.
