Colu Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 It's gills look red it could be ammonia burn I would do daily small water changes and add prime I would also add a small amount of aquarium salt 1 table spoon for 2 gallons salt will improve gill function and add essential electrolytes that fish need 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Uni Posted August 19, 2021 Author Share Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) Thanks guys I did everything that y'all recommended and he's more stable now, got the ammonia down to 0 with another water change. Added salt and will be doing so for a couple of days and will be checking the water parameters morning and evening.
