i did another big water change last night and he was ok. this morning he was doing it, but it wasnt too bad. so i guess he is still doing it , but it seems to be chilling out. his nose is starting to get a little beat up though. this really needs to stop.
i am out of ideas...so i am just going to give it more time and hope he chills out. when i first got him and had him in the 75 for the first few months he did it too. eventually he kinda stopped for the most part. so maybe he just needs alot of time to get used to it...who knows?
