Ok imagine a quarter USD as in american currency, thats the size of the angel not including fins.

Very lathergic, not eating, was stuck to the intake twice, took her off both time, she wouldnt leave the cup of my hand.

Her color is there, the blush is deeper red then before and her yellow/gold bridge on her nose/mouth/eyes is coming in.

she is a very vain fish, always has to seek attention from anyone especially me walking by or taking pics of em, I havnt see her for atleast 10 minutes.

Did a 5 gallon change yesterday, everything was fine it seemed last night, nitrates are a bit high as well as alkalinity, I use prime and aqua plus from hagen to condition the water and as a stress reliver/bacteria addative.


What went wrong?

What can I do?
temp is now at 80 degrees up from 8 on its way to 82 per my LFS, I have a 10g qt tank but no heater, it was broken this morning when I went to set it up.

UGH
Help please?
Id rather not have it die at all but i dont know what to do now but let nature run its course. I have 2 angels the blusher and the marble, same size at purchase, same size up until this week, busher stayed small and the marble filled out and has about 1/4" of new fin growth already.

please helps me.


Edit- spotted her in the plants, hiding well, what gives? I know they are tempermental but this morning at 5am she was fine, at 10am she wasnt. I like my fish and it took me almost 2 months to find the perfect blusher and marble.

What are your water parameters specifically? What size tank are these fish in? How often are you doing water changes & how long have you had these fish?
