I have a 29 gallon with a power filter 20-40, and a more then sufficent air stone, and new heater. and I had a ten gallon for a couple months which functioned perfectly with a chocolate chip star fish, just to see if i could handle salt water tanks. Now I decided to move to my 29 set it up and the filter was used so I figured it had enough bacteria to be fully cycled. Got a electric blue damsel just before setting up the 29 and did fine for one day in the ten. let the 29 sit for about a week and then put my star and damsel into it. after one hour the damsel had very heavy breathing and wont leave the bottom and on his side.
My stars arm or leg fell apart and eventually fell off the glass and showed little signs of life and I'm pretty positive has passed now. My temp is 79 and salinity is 1.204 im going to my LFS tomorrow to get my exact parameters. I have a fan blowing across the top and I have no live rock. What could I do to help my damsel?
And he has a small scar on his side
