my mudskipper died today, leaving me with a tank with nothing but 2 fiddler crabs a baby turtle and 2 feeder goldfish. The mudskipper stoped eating, he would go near the food but not touch it just sit next to it. He got less and less active, and his color kept on darkening. I think I will raise my water to six inches and elevate my land, then add another filter. do you think after thats done I should try again or try something else?
 
how was the water parameters?
loss of appetite could be due to bad water.
if you really like mudskippers, then you should try again.
maybe it was just a sick guy you bought, and wasnt your fault.
i think it had to do with the baby turtle in there. turtles' poop is alot more toxic than fish, so you cant really keep them together. but goldfish are nuts, they can take it.
