Aquarium Advice Newbie
Hello, my name is Jerene. I am new to this forum. I am a fairly new aquarium hobbyist. I have a 10 gallon tank. I first set up a brand new tank in May with a filter and heater and assorted fish. It was beautiful. Fish were healthy and seemed happy. Just before Christmas, we noticed that the bottom of the tank sprung a leak and we lost over 2 gallons water. Not good. The fish were donated to a responsible and experienced hobbyist who works for a large pet supply chain. My family surprised me with another new 10 gal tank at Christmas. (I wish it was a 20 gal but you can't look a gift horse in the mouth, right?)
I currently have 6 neon tetras, 2 Dalmatian mollies, 2 Tequila Sunrise guppies, 3 glofish and two golden apple snails. I know I have probably exceeded my limit~ They all seem to be doing very well and cohabitating nicely EXCEPT the pink glofish, which now seems to be noticeably smaller than his two counterparts, and is spending a lot of time swimming near the bottom. Seems to be lacking energy. I am a little concerned. Don't know if he (she?) is sick and should be removed. Looking for some good advice. Thanks very much!
