So green BTA has been in the tank for about a week and a half. He’s been nonstop looking for a spot but always ends up in the shade (he moves at night).

Today he looks really bad. Is he too far gone or should I wait?

A couple questions:

How old is your tank?

What lights are you using?

What's your water parameters?
 
Wait. I have lots of BTAs and they act like that sometimes. I bet he makes it. I noticed that you are in Phoenix. Message me and maybe I can help.
