I am not sure if this needs to be here or in the fish disease forum. I have a 4 inch female gs maroon clown that is hosting in a large gbt. I got the pair a year ago. they have been together for 4 years now. I added a smalll gsm a few months ago with the hopes they would pair up. Well they did and spawned several weeks ago. thge eggs were on a rock under the nem for several days then one morning they were gone. Then about a week and a half later the female clown began acting weird. she stays hidden in the nem all day and night. She isn't eating and is always "laying" on the nem. I have not seen anything strange on her body. no leasions, white marks parasites, cloudy eyes, nothing. Her color is a little dull and her breathing seems a little fast but not much. Any ideas???
Nothing has changed in the tank equipment wise and all water parameters are stable and have been the same for a long time. tank has been running for approx 18 months. Before she started acting this way she ate very good. mysis shrimp with a few drops of vita-chem and aqudine flake a couple times a week. Oh and she has been this way for 4-5 days. And the smaller male is acting fine - no problems at all. If more info is needed just ask - this was just getting a little long.
Thanks in advance
