Red Gills <—video

Mai yeah I got this fish on Monday and just now noticing his gills look alittle red…

right now he’s the only fish in the tank with some inverts. Seachem Ammonia Badge says Zero.

I began feeding Metroplex and Foxus today but I don’t think he likes the taste of it.

not sure what else is going on.

previously to adding this clown I had 2 very small baby clowns which I expected to die… sadly:(
