55 Gallon BW Tank 1.0010 SG
3 GSP
1 Platy
one out of my three gsps has taken a very dark green color where the yellow pattern should be, ive noticed today that he is not eating as well as the others but no sunken belly, i have treated for IPs about a month ago. Two things ive also noticed with this puffer is that when i saw him pooping his anus seamed a little red and he is very shy when i approach him and he darts around the tank alot.

Could this be a problem with water quality or some kind of infection?
don't have the the exact water parameters atm.

Can't really help you without that info. Are you aware they will be needing 30g ea? Also, the salt needed to keep these puffers happy, will not make the platy happy--quite uncomfortable, actually.

See the GSP article in our Library.
