How long can a fish survive with flukes?

The fish looks fine to me, and I wouldn't be too concerned about him pacing the glass like in the video, unless it's all the time (just be wary or make sure your aquarium is covered, these guys can jump if they want to) I had a yellow watchman, he would do something similar from time to time when we first got him. It's probably still settling in.

The only behavior I would be concerned with is the scratching you described. Is that still happening? Do you have a video of that?

Ywg doesnt scratch. Flame goby scratches sometimes.

I still don't see anything wrong with the watchman. The behavior is normal. The ones I keep at the store do this all the time. He doesn't look sick, or weird or abnormal at all.

Yup, have finally decided to transfer my fishes from 42g to my this new 130g, after a wc and filter media change. Doesnt have a skimmer yet though.
