Hey guys
This morning when I was walking up to the tank to feed my male marble motoro was hiding in the back buried and was refusing food. He's normally a very agressive eater and always swims up to the top of the tank to steal the peacock bass's food. Today he wasnt doing any of that. Then I saw were the barb was, there was a big bloody patch. I turned the lights off so he wouldnt be as stressed.
The water params are nitrite and amonia 0 ppm, nitrate 5 ppm, and ph is 7.2
The tank is a 120 with 2 rays and the peacock bass. The only decorations in the tank are a piece of driftwood and a clay pot.
Should I put in some medication, if so what kind?
Will he pull through?
I'll try to get a picture.
Thanks
