Several fish spitting out food after ammonia spike

I think we are good now! The Leopard is eating normally, he swallowed a whole cube of blood worms yesterday. His hole in head is also gone and hasn't returned.

The puffer has only been eating snails. This morning I tried a frozen cube of cichlid delight and he ate it! I am also breeding shrimp and scuds for other live food options for the puffer.
 

But my tank is in a much better place. Thanks @Colu

Also, lesson learned the hard way. I now have a quarantine tank setup and ready to go. 🙂

Good to hear there all improving

The leopard and puffer are still doing great. The puffer is more active and is now eating its normal diet of blood worms and brine shrimp. Yes!

I only had 6 juvenile Congo's and they all passed away within the last couple of months.

Right now I have:

1 Congo Spotted puffer

1 Ctenopoma acutirostre

1 vampire shrimp

3 upside down catfish

1 ornate ctenopoma

 

All are doing good and healthy. I think I'm just going to let my tank be healthy for a while an not make any changes in the near term. Eventually I might try another school of Congo Tetras. Of course they will be fully quarantined next time. 🙂
