Yeah they seem to be very territorial. Would be nice if they all got along then we can keep more than one in a tank not having to worry about if they gonna hack on each other or not.

i will try to keep them together in a month time and see how it goes.

I think it's a hit & miss thing?
So far I managed to comm mine together
And I didn't get them at the same time
I still think it is the turtle personality
 
Anyway just an updated pic of a full tank shot of my tank.

I need to offload some more fish soon :x

I checked on the FRT i don't think its going to make it. This morning its spinning around in circles in the water with its eyes closed and its neck like flinging everywhere. I picked it up and it feels like a feather. Ill be surprised if its still alive when i get home.

seems like it's feeling very terrible. really hope it can pull through. but from the way you described it's almost impossible unless there is miracle.

head down? get your family to lower the water level immediately! if not the FRT will have problem going to the surface to breathe and it will drown. :(

Lower the water level so it don't have to struggle around and this is to prevent it from drowning
