I woke up this morning and found all of my fish breathing heavy. Especially my blonde naso. I found my bubble tip anemone had finally died and poisoned the tank so I transferred the gasping fish to my observation tank and did a massive water change. The other fish all worked up fine but the naso did not.
I would figure it was just the most affected by the toxic water it was forced to breathe overnight. But what I noticed was how skinny it is now. It looks like it hasn’t eaten in a month. Skinnier than I ever thought it could be. And last night it was very plump and eating heartily. It’s night and day. Like the difference between a fresh tube of toothpaste and a spent one.
How did this happen. Could there be something other than an ammonia spike going on here?
