OK, so we are very new to this aquarium thing and have recently got 2 new gold fish. We originally brought a baby bio orb (15 litre / 3.3 gallon) tank for 2 gold fish around 2 - 3 inches in size each. After a day of seeing our new baby's in this circular prison we decided to buy them a 54 liter rectangle tank (11.87 gallons). The new larger tank is brand new with a stronger filter that we aloud to run for 24 hours before placing the fish in there new glorious home.
we have de-chlorinated the water and done an ammonia test and are readings say every thing is fine. we have also been feeding them every day / every other day.
Here is where it gets sad :'( one of our fish seems happy as larry, swiming around basking in the gold fish glory, while our other fish just sits at the bottom of the tank barely moving for around half hour periods. this happens around 5 times a day. we have done a water change to try help the situation but still no change...
please tell me whats wrong! he just sits around not moving looking unwell and sad.
would greatly appreciate some advice!
thanks in advance guys
p.s if needed we can post some pics
