I just got my tank started about 3 months ago now and everything is going good. Last night when I was feeding my neon dottyback and my 2 clownfish, I accidentally dropped in 2 pellets that were stuck together. The dottyback got it and ate it. Now I wake up in the morning and he is laying on the substrate breathing hard and hasn’t moved very much all day. I think maybe the pellets are stuck in his throat. I’m not sure because I feed the pellets about 18 hours ago and I would think they would have gotten to a point were he could at least spit them out or swallow them. My tank parameters are at Nitrates 0-5ppm, ammonia 0-0.25ppm, ph 7.8-8.0, nitrites 0ppm and my salinity is at 1.025. I believe it is probably the pellets because my clownfish are still doing good.
