aaron11 Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2014 Fish lie, so don't believe them when they claim they are starving. I did another change today just about 1/3 or less The fish were up the top like skimming the water but they alot where in the middle and down the bottom so I dont think there is ammonia. They are happy as guppies tend to ride the top aye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted March 10, 2014 Report Share Posted March 10, 2014 Yes they do but if this is new behaviour for your particular fish you might want to think about other reasons for this - like low oxygen levels. If they are otherwise fine though I would not worry about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the spray bar at the bottom of the tank as the hose is long Would it be better to have it up the top ???? Apart from that they are all doing great thank you so much for your help. I have cut the food down too. Now all I got to know is how to clean the external filter without making a mess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
