Joshlikesfish Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 I got four Heckilii earlier in the week and introduced them to my tank properly etc etc. Within a few hours they were eating and have settled in really well. Last night there was no signs of any of them being sick. This morning when I turned on the lights I find one upsidedown between a rock and the glass (not stuck, just upsidedown). I removed the rocks and helped him upright only for him to fall over again. He's breathing really heavily and he has lost almost all color. I've added a small amount of salt and I'm wondering what else I could do, or what could be wrong? There has been regular water changes on the tank Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovmoller Posted April 30, 2011 Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Sorry to hear that Josh. So YOU were the one... ("4 on hold") So how long have they been in your tank before this happened? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshlikesfish Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 I think I got them on tuesday, so today is their 5th day. The other three seem really happy They are stunning fish, I got them from David R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshlikesfish Posted April 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2011 Down to 3. Just changed the filter from a 2000lph to a 1000lph as the current looked a bit too much for the pleco's. Hopefully everything else in the tank is fine. :dunno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
