I guess the API test strips I bought don't do Ammonia, just Nitrite and Nitrate. I'm going to go out and get a test to see the ammonia level tomorrow, I'll post something when I see it. The tank right now is very cloudy, you can hardly see thru it. I guess for now we will plan to let the tank cycle for a few weeks and try again after getting some new readings. I guess when I was younger I was just lucky, I never bothered with tank setup or chemicals or acclimation, i just bought tetras and Balas and put them in my 5 and 10 gallon tanks and did 100% tap water changes every month. I cant ever remember loosing fish like this. I'm starting to think 3 gallons is just too unstable of a size. Less water makes for a more delicate balance. At this point I cant return the tank, besides a Beta is there any other suggestions on what kind of fish we could get? My 3yo son really only cares that it is blue.
Here is the tank

In all the pics it shows multiple fish in there and in the store they pack those guys so tight into 10-15 gallon tanks. I really didn't think 4 were too many from the research I did. I was reading ~1 gallon per fish. I hate that this has happened and don't want a repeat
Thanks for all the replys.
No one really knows because putting fish in a glass box isn't an exact science, but 36" (90cm) minimum is the recommendation I trust. Still 30" is better than 8.4"
If it's too short a tank to get good schooling behavior from them, then I really wouldn't do it.
So which "corporate entity that only cares about profit" would you prefer? Amazon, WalMart, or Tetra (Who seem to have discontinued that model.)
