Last night I came home and found my small Banggai Cardinalfish stuck to the back of my wavemaker. No fins or anything got sucked in but the fish is weirdly shaped like the letter ‘s’ now. It is still alive but cannot swim properly. Now it is just laying on the sand. I feel awful and don’t know...

I recently bought a pair of banggai cardinals. They were and still are really small and couldn't be sexed. They've been in my tank for over 10 days now. One is very active and is eating well and swimming throughout the tank. The other hangs out in the top corner or at the back of the rock...

I have a 40 gallon long tank with live rock and a BANGGAI cardinal fish. It also comes with a heater 2 powerheads and coral lights. I live near Alpharetta Ga.

I bought a pair of young banggai cardinals three days ago, but one of them died suddenly. It got sucked into a powerhead and beaten up (idk if it was postmortem or perimortem), so I can't tell if it was the male or the female of the pair. The store sexed them for me, so I'm not even sure if they...

Hey all! I recently acquired 2 banggai cardinalfish which I believe to be a male and female. I’ve only had them home for a few days, but I’ve noticed every once and a while they will do this behavior. One will pause, fold it’s fins over and turn slightly, and then yawn. Occasionally the other...
