ID Shark - Harry!

[lorraine]

Hi again all
Well Harry is finally eating his pellets - eventually, but now I am a littlw worried about something else with him.

when I bought him he was quite dark (almost black), but now he seems to have lost most of his colour and looks "washed out".
He is behaving "normally", ie he's swimming around the tank and still banging his head in the corner every now and again.

Any ideas why he could have los his colour??

Thnx
Lorraine

poor nutrition, chlorine in ur water, water params, the list goes on.... these things need to be checked...

Water params could be it but I'm betting that since you had the issue with getting it to eat, prob just a stressed out fishy... if everything else(water params, eating (wait you said he was so CHECK!)) checks out then it's the most likly culprit
