Cardinal Tetra Problem

[Dude]

i have a school of 20 cardinals

one of them is all beaten up and eaten.... he dosnt look very healthy and his color went away...

what do you recommend i do /? if anything?

he has allways been the one that everyone nibbles on...

 

[Dude]

he is also slow and dosnt get a full meal i think .... and i dont want to overfeed the other fish


if anyone can help

id appriciate it

I think it would probably be best to end his suffering, don't think you'll be able to sneak him any extra food with that much competition.

 

[Dude]

What are your water parameters

yah it would be pretty difficult, but the lfs does it every time so get a few nets going in the tank and have a spotter to just watch the fish.
