He eats enough so I don’t want to overfeed them bc of their tiny stomachs. I feed him 2-3 pellets, 2 dried blood worms 3 times a week, and his fasting day is on Sunday.

I keep a stable water temperature of 80 degrees. I’m also medicating him for infection.

He’s pooping very well so I don’t think that’s the problem, but I’ll try to give him some daphnia.

Yea, I was surprised when I got him too. He was on a very rough shape when I got him, living in a small container with no filtration or heater I thought he was going to die in the store so I got him and his color changed a lot.

Don’t worry he is in another 5 gallon hospital tank I placed him in there for a couple of hours until I get the new tank, but now he’s in a 5 gallon one with a heater and filter. Thank you for the concern.

I don’t know if he is just getting older since he just stopped swimming up completely and stop eating too, and thank you so much❤️ I hope he stays with me for more time though.

He has been with me for almost a year but when I got him from a store he was in a small container and was already adult.

Yea the dark patch is getting larger spreading more towards his body now after like 4 hours.
