Hi Guys , I recently bought a Motoro Stingray 3 or 4 days ago. The first day when it was introduced it was flapping around and exploring around like a puppy , but during the second day it just stayed at one spot and never moved , but only sometimes it moves just a little and then go back to the spot and never moved again. I've done a 40% weekly water change and tested the water before the day I introduced my Motoro Stingray. I need help!! Thankss!

What are the water parameters results How big is the tank? Tankmates?
7x3x3 , Tankmates are Payara Armatus , Silver Arowana , Asian Arowana , Spotted Gar and Nigerian Lapradei Bichir. Water parameters Ammonia 0
Have not tested Nitrate and Nitrite but it's Low , PH is 7.2
You should have 0 Nitrite your filter or filters may not be handling the bioload. Also the Stingray is the biggest contributer of the bioload and will not survive if the Nitrite remains or spikes.
It may be still settling in. Perhaps intimidated by the tank mates. Can you put a divider in to keep it separate from the other fish? Has it eaten?
