My sphinx and peacock blennies are breathing very fast after i added them about 13 hours ago.
Acclimation was kind of rushed ( there was salinity and 3 C temperature difference) because the water they were in was really bad and needed to be replaced asap.
Is this normal acclimation shock or could it be something more serious or life threathening?
The male peacock blenny is sort of eating tough . He was picking at a "sea earthworm" ( soft worm related to bristleworms, used as fishing bait, fish especially wrasses really like them)
I' ll attach some footage ( sorry for the bad focus, i filmed on my phone).
Thanks in advance for y'all's advice
