I have a 5-6" yellow belly regal who its chunky and thick. I just got him two days ago from a reputable wholesaler. He looks gorgeous. Yesterday he was doing good. didn't eat but what picking the rocks here and there.
Now today he is still doing good. not eating yet as I have presented him with mysis, LRS, Rods, half shell clams, bloodworms and nori.
but he has been swimming in the corner vertical and then comes nose down and back up... then when I come over he will swim normal through the rocks to the other side and kind of do the same thing just minimal around some rocks but always ends up back in the same corner. Im guessing this is stress. But he is the only thing in this 220g other than a few small wrasse.
also I came home to find a long string of white feces. im guessing an internal parasite from all ive researched. I know we are in day two and it just needs time but any advice would be great. Thank you
