finally managed to get Channa pleurophthalma and picked them up saturday.
I pad 75 for 4 channa's from 3/4inches long.
after a four hour transport to my home I placed te fish carefully in my 90gallon tank.
there's 1other fish in the tank,a 13inch Panaque.
first day was fine but the second day I noticed 1Channa Pleurophthalma was hanging ''stuck'' to the surface most of the time,while the others where swimming in a shoal.
he's contineud this behavure 4days now,and i am started to get worried.
when I open the tank and i touch him with my finger there is now reaction at all.
he is breathing heavily to its gills,but on a slow tempo.
the other channa's arent breathing at all true the gills.
while the other channa are shiny blue,this fish is more brown and les colorfull(when i bought hem he was colorfull).
when he swims down,it's almost like he floats back to the surface.
when he tries to hang still inside the tank,his tail slowly starts to move to the surface.
he does swim around sometimes,but 80% of the time he is hanging still.
Should I be Worried,and what should I do when this behaviour contineus?
