Please help. Got a question.

[unclefahaka]

I bought a damsel yesterday. 3 striped Black and white. Since we introduced it to the tank(that tank has been cycled) the damsel just lays at kind of a slant..like this " \ " and he stays at the top and barely moves, he looks like he's gasping. The levels are fine. So I don't know what to do

any help would be apprechiated.

thanks,

Justin

Not a good sign, but damsels are tough hombres. Give him some time - he'll make it or he won't.

*******This is all based on the assumption that you properly introduced the fish and didn't shock him.**********

Are there other fish that might be harrassing the damsel?

[petcrazy213]

Did you just plop him in there or did you slowly acclimate him first?

Ok, The damsel is by himself. He was the first fish in this new tank. He seems to swim slanted when he's hiding. Anyway, he seems to be doing good now. I talked to the LFS guy and he said he's just stressed from the new move.
I acclimated him to the water.

Thanks,
Justin
