Hello everyone ive just aquired a central american setup with a pair of bifscatius , vieja argentea female ,jack dempsey, male barred midas and what i think is a red terror.The midas is always on the bottom and drops like a brick when he stops swiming i was thinking swimbladder problem then i saw his ass area was looking wrong it looks like a sore slit you could get your finger in any info appreciated
 
Any pics?
What do you feed it? How often?
Did you observe any aggression at all?
Water parameters?
Temperature?
Tank size?

:welcome: to MFK by the way!
 
Hello lupin i feed them osi wavers and floating cichlid pelets 1 feed per day since the tanks still young from the move.The midas was like that when i got the setup.He will attack any fish that comes over him in midas territory sometimes he lets the red devil in nobody else tho, ive built a barrier from bogwood which comes to 8 in from the surface to give him his own area ive addad a large bit of tuffa to balance the ph sitting 6.8 last i checked.temp 78 .Tank is 6x2x2 ft running 2 eheim 2080s 2 guarded 300w heaters 1 t8 strip 4 way rena air pump im getting a master test kit today i will post test results later thanx
