Hey everyone,
I’ve been keeping fish for about a year now and recently went to college and got a new tank for my dorm. I currently have 2 fancy clowns, a banggai cardinal, and a royal gramma in the tank, along with a couple snails and a crab. Last night I noticed some really major signs of stress, I tested my usual parameters of nitrites, nitrates, ammonia, ph and salinity but all seemed to be normal. I did a big water change just to be safe and turned out the lights. I just checked on it ~10 hours later and the fish seem mostly fine, but one of the clowns was still showing signs of stress. They’ve been in the tank for ~3 weeks now and the tanks been set up for almost 2 months. Anyone have advice for how I can help make sure they calm down?
