For those that have/had a flame hawkfish, do they seem to breathe faster than most fish? Or should I be looking for something else here....
Context:
I just picked up the next round of my fish for QT: Flame Hawkfish, Purple Firefish, Diamond goby.
They have just completed first of 14 days in CP (60mg/gal). All 3 were breathing a little fast yesterday, but I'm thinking it was more from stress of transfer (45 min float, 5 min drive from LFS) . Yesterday all 3 ate. Today, hawkfish seems to still be breathing faster than the other two. Today he hasn't shown much of interest in food but he's still very active. Nothing else visible so I don't want to jump to conclusions, will continue to observe.
