Aquarium Advice Newbie
Last week I bought the final members of my 20 gallon aquarium. I had 4 zebra danios, 1 dwarf guarami, 1 african dwarf frog, and just added 2 mollies and a Cory catfish.
The mollies took a little while to claim some tank territory as the guarami was not a big fan of them. They all seem pretty peaceful together now. My problem is that the Cory catfish is refusing to eat and barely moving in general. I tested the water. Ammonia and nitrites are at zero.. Nitrates were a bit high at 40 ppm, so I did a 50% water change. Seeing if that helps.
I believe he may just be scared/alone. But I don't feel comfortable adding additional fish since the tank is pretty much at capacity if not slightly over already.... Do I return him?
thanks!
