I'll see if I can get my other 30 up and running again. I think I have the "Gymnocorymbus ternetzi." I got them from Petsmart. I called and verified the scientific name. Regardless, these fish are pretty active and stay swimming around. I have some caves for the Leo and even stuffed some fake plants in a corner for him to hide behind but he steady is staying in the corner right by the lid. Now that I am thinking in terms of stress, he did stay hidden all the time when it was just him in the tank. I just didn't see the issue since he swam around so much when I first got him and stayed eating flake food so well. Guess things change...
So.... I'll throw some tank water in the other 30 I have and see if I can't get it working. Can't hurt to give it a shot, right? I'm just hoping he is healthy. He's ignoring flake food, seems to be ignoring blood worms, unless I just missed it..., and has a baby molly swimming inches away from him, too. I thought that would get eaten no problem! Maybe the lighting is bugging him? Nocturnal thing? Got the light off now. We'll see what happens overnight.
Also, I do make sure the tetras start eating on the flake food before I add the blood worms. I noticed there was food left over so I added corydoras in addition to the flying fox. The mollies got added for live food. Getting confused... Like I say, just hoping that after my battle with water quality, his health isn't the issue. He doesn't look skinny to me so I think he's eating something sometime.
