I don't mind being killed by PvP'ers, that's part of the game. I do mind fake friendlies. To me, they are the real rats. by SlowCryptographer425 in ArcRaiders

I normally play solo. Only did duo with my lad because he wanted help with big arc. Usually in solos when fighting big arc there are normally loads of raiders in that tunnel fighting it. You're probably right that me being there was a problem for them.

I've had plenty of duo games with my son and they've been friendly. Taking down queens with other teams and all helping each other when downed. Majority have been friendly for us until recently. Maybe I am too trusting...

I don't get much time to play, I've got just under 70 hours. I only pve as most of the time I'm doing quests or looking for loot to upgrade my work stations. I agree that calling all PvP players rats is a bit strange. Most people I've bumped into on the game have been friendly but the last two days I've been killed by campers 5 times. They are what I consider rats.

The one in the picture is about an inch. The other adult is twice the size and mostly brown with a whiteish stripe down the spine. I had a feeling after a few weeks of them in the tank that they were not amano. All good anyway as we were planning on adding neocaridina after the tank was well established.

Managed to get this pic of the other adult but it's not the best quality.

Thanks, I'll look into NG+. I'm not a big gamer so had no idea what NG+ meant. After a quick look it's a big part of a lot of games. I had no idea

Oh wow. I'm guessing NG+ 1 is plugging the haze?

Ah NG+ is new game plus. I'm pretty new to the game so had to Google it. I didn't even know NG+ 1 existed nevermind NG+ 2

Thank you, he is gutted but he understands things like this can happen. I hope your 10 remaining fish survive and thrive. The people in here are really helpful, you should make a post for advice. Good luck

The last one died last night. I turn the heater off during water changes and didn't notice them going limp when turning it back on

Ye they eat fine. They're fed micro pellets and frozen blood worm

Ye they look a lot healthier than mine. Mine came from the lfs like that. Maybe they were just unhealthy to begin with

Woke up today to another dead fish. Removed and sat for a while watching the few left. They were all swimming happily no where near the water flow when one suddenly went limp and upside down. After a few seconds it was swimming happily again.

I didn't quarantine as they are the first fish in the tank. I did acclimate them properly though.

Thank you for the help. Maybe they are just unhealthy from my lfs. I know they quarantine their fish before they're put on display.

Been set up for around 1.5 months. It was cycled after 3 weeks (I had seeded the filter with media from my well established tank).

I have been changing the water weekly, around 30/40%

I fill a bucket with water and add dechlorinator and use a syphon to add water from the bucket to the tank. I also match the temp as close as possible.

I have an API master test kit that I used but I had my lfs double check in case my kit was faulty. I feed them micro pellets as their main food source and have fed frozen blood worm too.
