Black convict

[Mxryder]

I have a black convict that was given to me I added it to my tank yesterday and it swam around a lot and today it's just been sitting in three different spots, what's wrong with it? I had a blue ram with it and it died for no reason this morning and along with 3 others before the convict and 2nd ram the ph nitrates and ammonia levels are fine what could be the causing this? Picture of tank before and after

what are your actual parameters?

Are you using lime stone as base sand and coral rock as deco? If yes, then your ph should be very high. Is this a new setup? Look like every things is very new, if yes then you shoul a stable your tank for few days and do a 100% change water. Then wait for one day before you put in fishes. Reason is lime stone is not good for keeping fishes.

That tank seems small for a convict. It looks 10 gallons.

The con will outgrow that tank, also they can be very aggressive and territorial towards other species.

You say nitrAtes and ammonia are fine, how about nitrItes?
