odd behavior in amazon puffer
Posted: Tue Jan 08, 2019 9:17 pm
Hello Mr or ms
My amazon puffer seem to be a bit lethargic and is stationary in one of the lower corners of my nanocube. If this continues, I
was wondering if i t could be something he ate. Oh, and I just did a %50 change in the tank around afternoon. I used cold wawter --
Maybe the water temp. could be affecting him.
Here are the specs:
hi ph level-->7.8 ppm
ammonia-->0ppm
nitrate--->5ppm
nitrite-->0ppm
tank size: 24 gal
inhabitants: 6 mollies w/ 1 amazon puffer
feeding: once every day
Water change: once every week(%20)/once a month(%50)
oh, and i inadvertantly killed an additional puffer with too much heat--another tidbit is that my remainin puffer gobbled up a shoal of neon tetras
Could you be so kind as to diagnose my fish ailment (if any?)
Many thanks,
