I bought a Short-nose gar today (Lepisosteus platostomus). Hes in a 4 foot tank, with plenty of vegetation for cover. pH and everything else are fine. Temp is 24oC.
Since I put him in hes been sitting on the bottom of the tank. He doesn't move from one spot, just sits there. Only know he's alive because his gills are moving.
Any ideas whats wrong? Or will he just take a while to acclimatise?
