This morning I looked at my tank and ALL THREE TETRAS WERE DEAD! Two of them were stuck to the intake thing... what a horrible thing to clean up! I don't know if they couldn't handle the ick treatments or what... I guess I'm just not cut out to have an aquarium... I feel like a horrible person right now!

Oh, I'm so sorry! :( It's not your fault though - fish are very hard to keep alive. :(

Tetras are more sensitive to medications than other fish.

On most medications, there are two dosages, one for most community fish, and a lesser dose for tetras. If you have tetras mixed with other fish, as most of us do, it's somewhat of a lose/lose situation ... you either over-medicate the tetras and the medication kills them, or you under-medicate the other fish, and the disease kills them.

Sorry about your fish. :(
