I wonder if 26 deg C (79F) is too high for white cloud mountain minnows? I
noticed that they've recently stopped swimming around, and "shimmy" around
the rear of the tank. They've also become uninterested in feeding -
previously they're the first to get the food. The temperature rose after I
installed a 23w pump in the sump, which must be heating the water up quite a
bit.

I suspect it's the temperature because I presume minnows are cool water
fish? I also keep neon tetras and corydoras in the same tank, and these seem
ok.
