As I noted since day 1 the fish seemed restless, which made some sense given that he was packaged, shipped, unpackaged, and thrown into a new world. I noticed 2 things on this species now.
1. After I FW dipped him he seemed very relaxed 1 hour after the dip and for about 2 hours after.
2. Seems very relaxed almost at home today(24hrs Since PraziPro was added). Not pacing back and forth with fins up, not beating up the glass, not seeming frantic, he seems very content.
I was told that this species is very restless and maybe so but I have come to realize that he must have had flukes or such parasite bothering him.
Today he is really finicky on what he eats, he is still eating red and green seaweed, but spirulana and brine he is spitting back out. He eats the first few then is really picky, he has never been picky with those foods. Must be the prazi suppressing his appetite which is normal from my understanding. Can flukes also cause a fish to almost eat relentlessly because they are starving him of nutrients?
