Fish at bottom of tank, breathing rapidly. HELP.
1~ Black Moor is sitting on the bottom of the tank breathing quickly. The other Black Moor is floating near the top, also with breathing difficulty.
2~ Unsure of tank parameters, other than temp, which is about 68/70 degrees.
3~ Tank is approx. 33 gallons and has been set up a little over a month, after a transfer to a bigger tank.
4~ 20-40 gallon Whisper filtration. Unsure of GPH.
5~ 2 Black Moors, approximately 6 inches each.
6~ 10 gallon water change done 2 days ago. Water is changed about once a month.
7~ I have had my Black Moors about 2 years.
8~ I added AlgaeFix when I changed the water.
9~ They are fed Wardley goldfish flakes and haven't had a diet change recently.
re #8, I added the AlgaeFix when I changed the water. In hindsight, I realise that I shouldn't add it on water change. Could this be the reason?
