Flame angel not doing well - Aquarium Advice

choupic · 07-20-2007, 11:29 AM

I bought a Flame angel and a cleaner shrimp(shrimp doing fine) yesterday from Coral Connection(lfs). I floated bags in tank for 30 mins. and then did drips for 1 hour till original water was doubled. Last night it was barely swimming hideing behind a rock.This morning is laying flat on its side breathing hard. I dosed my tank with stress coat this morning. Is their anything else I can do?

Post your water parameters. Make sure your water levels are in order. I think you couldve dripped for a little longer than an hour. The shrimp shouldve been dripped for a couple hours, but you wont begin to notice any signs of stress for a few days.

I agree that we need to see water parameters to see if anything is wrong with your tank.
