problem with snakehead

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yea fins are all flared when he kinda twitches and colour goes darker (btw i'm mrs jason just checking for new posts for jason lol) hogging pc lol....you have me so convinced now this is what is happening. The more i think about it and for what i ve seen behavior wise it all adds up
 
I think that it could easily be pH shock, it irritates the gill tissue and sensory pits, if so the fish should recover over a couple days.

Yes that is definatly territorial behavour, Mine goes really dark sometimes with a blue tinge.

I do a 25% water change weekly although the water going in is not that much different than the water already there.
