I have a 250 gallon tank with a 75 gallon refugium. I run RO water and have 2 PJ sharks, both about 8 inches. I've had them for about 5 months now and one of them is suddenly not eating, sitting around all day as opposed to being its very active self and has a reddish swollen like anus. I feed them Silverside mostly, and clams and squid every once in a while. All water tests are normal, but Nitrate is a tad high 30ppm. Im doing a water change tonight. I love these sharks like kids and id hate to loose one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thankyou
 
What are your water parameters - specifics?

What is your water temperature?

What type of substrate is in the tank?

Are you adding any vitamins to the food?

Are these wild caught or captive bred?

Did you deworm the sharks?
