Hi, I’m brand new to this group & looking for help for our dragon wrasses fish. I started a salt water tank for my father with help from a few others since he is 78 & wanted something to challenge him & keep him busy since he is in 1st stages of dementia. Long story short, it’s gone really well since he has had fresh water tanks for years & we have been building the tank now for 3 months & checking with fish store in different levels. All fish & soft coral have seemed happy until the last 2 days.
The dragon wrasses fish who was very active & playful around the tank for 2 weeks is now laying on his side.
I started reading posts here & did an emergency fresh water dip for 5 minutes as suggested with helping another dragon wrasses fish and he seemed to react to it swimming in container, laying back down, swimming. After the 5 minutes I put him back in tank & Im looking to see what to do next & planning to go to fish store after they open for help.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I’m clueless. About to call my fathers house to give him bad news/update.
