Hey! I'm a new blood parrot and aquarium owner. Right now I have 3, I asked for 4 but apparently they had reserved the last one for someone else. I'm planning on starting a second tank soon and will pair the third off with a second parrot. Anyway, I have a few questions regarding the fish and tank.
The girls (I'm guessing and don't really care, they are my girls lol) got home on Sunday. They are still in hiding for the most part. How long should I wait before getting worried? None of them have eaten since I got them here.
Do they like it dark? I have bright saltwater lights but they are almost always in hiding for the 8 hrs the light is turned on (it's on a timer) but as soon as it goes off they will somewhat come out of hiding and swim around.
My tank has been set up for 6 weeks and showed to have fully cycled before I brought Paris, Pally and Peggie home. But since I brought them home it has gotten cloudy. I am planning to do a water change and gravel vaccumm tomorrow, unless this will scare and stress them out even more than they already are. What do you think?
Thank you for any and all advice.
