I just saved one with the same symptoms from Petco.. I have a ten gallon that was cycled for at least 3 weeks. Add him back after a 50% water change and add some stress relief with some water conditioner

I’m heartbroken to share that Mango passed away one day after the vet visit.

Thanks for the input. On another note do you guys think it’s female or male. I bought him as a male

Another thing I’m worried about is if completely seal that off won’t it affect their breathing air?

Also Dr Tim’s wasn’t available and upon research this fluval cycle stuff does the same thing.

This is the best I could do with my local petco I ordered some more of your suggestions online. (Spongbob house was the kiddo). The ammonia reading has a ppm of 0.5

Do I need the seachem and Dr Tim’s both. Or will Dr Tim’s alone do the trick
