I DONT KNOW IF HE IS SICK OR SOMETHING ELSE BUT HE HAS NOT EATEN IN ABOUT 9 DAYS AND HES SWIMMING AROUNG ABNORMALLY AND IS SCARED BY THE SLIGHTEST NOISE (NOT NORMAL FOR HIM). I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO. I DONT WANT TO LOSE HIM, HAD HIM FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS. WATER IS NORMAL(PH, AMMONIA, ETC.). IN THE TANK IS ONLY HIM AND 2 PLECOS(ABOUT 4INS BIG) AND 2 ELECTRIC BLUE LOBSTERS( ABOUT 3INS FOR ONE AND 4INS FOR THE OTHER). PLEASE I NEED SOME ADVICE.
what size tank is?
have you changed anything recently in the tank?
Have you done anything differently in the tank recently?
what do you normally feed?
and how big is he?
oh and what is your water changing scedule for the tank!!??
TANK IS A 55GAL HE IS STARTING TO OUT GROW THE TANK BECAUSE HE IS ABOUT 12 INS LONG
THE ONLY THING I HAVE DONE IS ADD 2 SMALL LOBSTERS, THATS IT
EATING HABITS ARE CRICKETS ONLY
WATER CHANGING SCHEDULE IS ABOUT 1/3 TO 1/2 EVERY 2 MONTHS
starting to outgrow it....you need to stick him in another tank now.
are his fins ripped at all? the lobsters may of had a go.
you need to feed a balanced meal so try to include over foods like meal worms and super worms aswell.
that siple isn't good enough with a fish that big in a small tank your water parameters are probable equal to a sewer. You need to be about 30% weekll.
i hope you realise that you need a 300 gallon tank for him minimum full grown.
oh and the caps lock key on most keyboard is on the left
