Need Help with Apistos
« on: June 11, 2013, 08:39:40 AM »
Has anyone had trouble with Male Apistos dying out of nowhere for no reason?  I had it happen with my male Erythrura today.  I went to move them and he wasn't quite swimming right.  They were in a 5 gallon holding section on a rack and being moved into a larger breeding tank.  There weren't any signs of agression.  Any ideas?

No ragged fins?  My female used to beat on my male before I sold them.

His fins looked awesome, he just stood on end and moved really sluggishly, and I found him dead this morning.
