Hi all
Not sure if this is the correct spot to be posting.
I moved a few weeks ago, and my tank was upgraded from a 90g corner to a 120g (5 ft long).
I have 3 green severums, 2 rainbow cichlids, a blood parrot and some platy/swordtails. Sadly, one blood parrot did not make the move. I mentioned in another post, I think I had a mini cycle, however, ammonia and nitrites are now 0 and nitrates are now between 5-10. Temp is about 77. I have an FX4 and a wavemaker for extra agitation (the FX4 did not seem to be providing enough surface agitation, I am debating changing the output nozzle to a bar instead).
The parrot and swortails/platys are all swimming fine. However, the 3 green severums seem to be hiding often among the plants (they used to be out quite a bit in the old tank), and the rainbow cichlids have more pronounced black colouring and were hiding in the rocks for quite a few days/are fairly skittish now.
Is it just them getting used to the move/new tank? Or is there something I should be concerned about?
