This appears as a newly setup, non-cycled tank which is cloudy and substrate appears muddy in appearance. Was the sand rinsed?I need help because 3 days ago I got a clownfish and on the 2nd and 3rd he been swimming on his sides for like one hour and stop so what's happening and it's kinda hard for him to swim
Your first step is to get a test kit, its extremely important, we don't know if the water is safe for fish without test kits. If you can't tell us anything, even though we want to help, unfortunately its hard to help with no info at all.I don't know I don't know and no gt tank
Salt level 10.022 don't know Ammonia one week and 3 or four days I added sand yesterday and hade the fish for 3 daysThis appears as a newly setup, non-cycled tank which is cloudy and substrate appears muddy in appearance. Was the sand rinsed?
Age of tank?
Did you acclimate fish prior to release and for how long?
What is your salt level?
What is ammonia level?
What filters are you using ?
1.022 is too low as you want 1.024 and if adding sand, best to have rinsed or prepped tank better before adding any livestock. Others mentioned returning fish- I support that. Tank is immature and not quite ready and I forgot to ask what size tank and if has overflows or hang on filter as I suspect a regular box tank that is non-reef ready and will need some adjustments and cycling.Salt level 10.022 don't know Ammonia one week and 3 or four days I added sand yesterday and hade the fish for 3 days
First I did cycle for like 2 weeks then I got him and accumulated but the first week of the cycle I put beneficial bacteria in it then one week layer I got himHonestly, you should return the fish (asap) to the shop you bought it from. You posted a separate thread yesterday about the clown not eating. The tank isn't cycled and clearly isn't ready for any inhabitants, and you should do a fair amount of research and reading before adding anything else in the future. Sorry to say, but as it stands now, the clown is probably going to get worse and worse if you don't remove it.

Yes I didSorry if this sounds rude but did you do any research at all to see what is required to keep marine fish alive in a home aquarium?
