When I came home from running errands and sat down in front of the tank for the first time today, I immediately noticed Leo, our CBB was stuck against the powerhead. No signs of injury or illness that I can see, and he’s been in captivity eating frozen food (mysis and spirulina brine are his two favorites) for years. Approximately 6 months with me, and several years with his previous owner. All fish additions in the last several months have been wrasses, and all have been sourced from a LFS with a robust QT procedure. No signs or symptoms of disease or weakness in any of my other 12 fish. No signs of aggression. CBB was eating great and looking healthy through feeding time last night. Today he looks like a different fish - suddenly MUCH skinnier and the first time I’ve ever seen him weak like this or with a breathing rate this rapid. See videos below for how he looks right now. I’ve got a 10g QT tank set up and cycled, just coming up to temp as I type. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
