So I have this weird thing that gold and green hammers are fine for me but purple and rose aren't. I got this purple hammer a month ago and similar to the first one, theres been a slow decline. Excuse the dirty glass but the skeleton is partly showing and they're way less puffy than before. I haven't had any major swings

Im not exactly sure what it is with purple hammers but anyone have some tips for later? Acros are growing and coloring up and the gold hammers fine too

Personally I would move it, just because the other hammer likes that spot doesn't mean they all will know what I mean. I think its a positioning issue. IMO, good luck

I agree with Mr. Mojo. I would move it. Just because they are of the same species doesn’t mean they will get along either.

Ill try moving it later. I just find it weird that maybe 2/3 of the heads seemed puffed and that theres a slow decline there. Im not 100% if it could be my clowns bothering it since they do hang out around it

Skins peeling on some of them now. Really wondering what it is now. Relocated too
