Two nights ago, I saw my Mandarin emaciated and barely moving, (another newbie mistake of purchasing a fishand putting it in an immature tank) her fins that normally undulate are steady and I can tell some heavy breathing.
NOW, I can't seem to find her, she must be dead in the tank somewhere behind the live rocks. Can anyone tell me how to find her? Will I have to disassemble my rockscape? I tested the water today and all seems well, no detectable ammonia yet. I have a brittle star and a serpent star, what are the odds of them scavaging her remains? It would be rather sad to see her bones floating one day. Or worst, an ammonia spike that might hurt my other fish. Please advice. TIA
