I'm with him ^ on the Mela/Pima. I've heard it can hinder O2 exchange. Can you tell us about your filtration?
IF it was me and I saw that red belly I'd be freaking out. I tend to over react though.... lol. Keep in mind this is just me. I'd add rediculous amounts of air, thin out the substrate (looks deep), loose the Bichers to another tank, clean the bio, add bio from another tank, upgrade filtration, then stamp it with a big UV. I've found the only way to get myself away from second guessing things is to overkill it enough that it's ruled out immediately as a potential problem, hopefully making it easier to diagnose issues that might pop up. Unfortunately the results are still pending lol.
