Clownfish breathing hard at bottom

[DHolbrook]

Thanks everyone. This morning my clowns are doing much better. They have increased activity and breathing rate is almost normal. My sick one swam right up to my feeding dropper and started nosing it. I think my problem was three fold: a weak/young bio filter, snail die-off, and over feeding the mysis. I'll wont be making these same mistakes again. Thanks everyone for the input.

Here is a pic from 5 minutes ago, I haven't seen the Black Bandit off the sand in two days! Orange Fanta was never as sick, but staying with Bandit the whole time.

Thanks Again.

They look good. your tank appears super clean. Let it dirty up a bit.. get a good bio structure going there. Find some super porous rock and get it into your sump if u run one. Keep dosing the nite out with the regimen in the bottle. Your system will be acting like an older system in no time. Not a fan of most any snake oil bacteria but I noticed a few lfs using the nite out when they built new displays and had fish in them right away. When I asked them what theu used the response was nite out. Pretty much same strain as dr tims one and only. Nice tank boss.
