okay, so I'm in a hurry!! please help me!! I got my occellaris clown fish just today! I left it in the bag and kept in in the tank WITh the fish INSIDE the bag for about 20-25 mins. They I netted out the fish and put them into my 10 gallon aquarium!
I got two one has all its stripes . And the other one a just really young cuzz it's 3rd stripe is developing, and it doesn't have that black line on its tail .. Just when I put it in, it was floating UPSIDE DOWNNN!! But it's gills where moving .. so i stirred thed water a little bit and it started swimming a little towards the bottom and trying and stuggling then it float back upside down!
I called for help on this help line where i got the store from, and he said it was probably under alot of stress and the gravity change was big and its older enviroment had a lower gravity and salinity level. I tested my gravity and stuff and it came out pretty high so I added some fresh water to it, and now the salintity is 28, and the grav. is 1.020-0.020 !!
