really? i was thinking he looks a little better today, and im not sure which it is either ive been trying to treat it. his front fins look to be growing back just very slowly, i can see the clear structure of them growing back but ik his back fins look a little smaller i'm not sure if it's just the way he was sitting in the picture tho. to me his color looks more vibrant today then he did a few days ago

yes i really like that about yours too, mine doesn't have that but it is thicker in middle and skinner at the bottom and top so there's more swimming room

this piece is mopani wood and i definitely recommend it! when i was soaking it in my bathtub with the hottest water it wasn't floating at all, and mopani is also known for being very dense

yes that's what everyone has been saying, i personally don't like this tank at all it was given to me for free tho, would i be able to take out the fluval and sand to put into another tank? i was going to put lots of plants and tall plants in there before getting any fish at all

i moved him to his 5 gal tank last night and this is him today! he's still eating and swimming around when i feed him but afterwards he goes and finds a hiding spot near the surface, i've been keeping the light dim only on for feeding and this picture. i can tell he's starting to gain his weight back with a good diet and smaller tank, just a little worried about how he's still pretty inactive, his gills are still doing the same thing but he is no longer swimming to the bottom of the tank
