This morning my loach gave me a scare... sleeping on its side. Well, Looking at it again, its not lookin to good. I eventually got scared enough to warrant putting my scraper in there to see if i could get him to swim... He stirrs, but almost seems like he's had a stroke or something. Stunned, always swimming to the right. His mouth twiches like hes trying to eat every now and then. Breathing is also very shallow.
He has never had good color - even at big-al's. My other loach looked like him when i got him, and got color afterwards. He's been in this tank for about 6 months.
Picture to follow.
Any idea's> i dropped a shrimp pellet RIGHT beside him... he's not goin for it. I watched him eat yesterday though!
PH 7.4, Temp is about 81, Nitrates at or near 0, KH of 9 degree's. Cycled for 3 months.
Only change was an added betta, but its never paid any notice to him.
