I think I know the answer to this, but I wanted to check to be sure.
I added two new small gold gouramis to my 25 gallon tank yesterday. It joins a few panda cory cats, three zebra danios and five neon tetras. My water conditions are ~6.8 ph, 0 ammonia, ~20 (whatever unit) of nitrate. Tank is about 6 months old.
I know the new home and new tankmates are stressful to the new fish. Each fish is hiding in the corner of the tank and won't come out. When they do, they thrash violently around the tank and then crash into the glass and then resume hiding in the corner.
My question is how long should it take until they start acting normal in the tank? Is there anything I can do to ease their transition?
Just planning ahead and trying to be informed over the next week or so...
Thanks in advance.
