I own a longnose gar that's about 11 inches and he's been lying on the bottom of the tank for the past couple of days, rarely surfacing. I performed a water change a week ago just tested for ammonia which was good and ph which was neutral. The clown knife and the senegalus seem to be doing great so i'm am confused. Some feedback would be great, thanks, matt
