Same thing had to me, albino pleco, then a city, now I recently found out it needs friends. I'm done with my LFS for fish.

In that case I would definitely return him. Then throw the salt in and heat your tank up for a week. I believe there cycle is around one week.

 

[Somykidswantedanaquarium]

Ok will do going today to take him back

 

[Somykidswantedanaquarium]

He didn't make it

 

[Rachelw]

It was actually the saddest out of the group I was rooting for him too he just hung there but I can change stuff around and start over I'm thinking what I can do with my little tank not sure what to stalk it with at all

Well you have lots to choose from that would work. Little tetras, dwarf gourami's are nice and you can get them in a couple colours. Happy hardy little fish.

Hmm maybe celestial pearl danios? I can do a dark substrate maybe try live plants with my my plastic ones?

They are really pretty been looking at them online I'm good with plants outside of a tank but no experience with them in a tank haha

Yup they would be fine in your tank. Get a school of them if thats what your going with. I mix live and fake plants in my tanks as well. Mind you I have fish that think its fun to rip them up. You shouldn't have that problem ha

 

[Somykidswantedanaquarium]

Haha yes I want a school through my research they become pretty solitary even in large numbers but I don't mind

We will see I'm going to be really carefully and really patient this time

Plants in a tank are way easier. There are a variety of products for them. I don't bother. I just plant them in my substrate and let them feed off just the nutrients in the water(mainly fish poop). Light and the fish poop is all they really need.

Fantastic I think I plant plants first haha if I don't kill those I will move onto fish
