Hi to all,
First a quick update on rexy, he is back in tank and seems to be doing well. :lol: He seems to have a little grin on his face, it's so cute.
BUT the last few days I noticed she seems to be climbing and hiding in the plants, she pretty much has not moved out of them now. I tried to coax her out with food but to no luck. Floating or hiding? She has always seemed quite slow except when she does her nightly swim around the tank. (she has stopped doing this aswell, as far as I know).
She is in a new tank (seperated her from rexy). The tank is 1 wk into it's cycling, have been doin' 20% water changes daily. 2ft x 1ft x 1ft, 2 pipe tunnels for hides, 5 elodia and 1 banna lilly for plants. No light as it is still getting built. With screen lid. I did have a air stone in there aswell as a little waterfall filter but the day before yesterday removed the air stone.
Currently
Nitrate 20 -30 ppm (keeping in mind my treated tap water is 20 ppm).
Nitrite nil
Ph 7.2
Amonia 1.0-2.0 ppm
Hardness 180 ppm
Temp 19 degrees
Can anyone give me any advice is this normal axie behaviour??
What's she doin she seems to be asleep in the plants on top of water all the time??
How much light for plants is too much for axie?? (my plants need light)
Do I need the airstone??
Much apreciated if anyone can answer my questions?? I'm really worried about my little girl now
