and he has been moving about the tank at night and in the morning when i wake up until today

i did the drip method, all my parameters are good, except my nitrates are little high, 1.024 sg. he was like staying in the same place kinda moving his legs a little and saw his mouth moving a bit but not walking around or anything. he is in the same since like 4 pm.

he really isnt hiding i can see him plain as day behind a piece of lr...hopefully he is molting....do they act sluggish during this phaase? he seemed to be a bit more active until today

i got him about a week or so ago and he was kinda white and green, i read a few posts saying that he is prob going to molt soon. well today i saw him and he really hasnt moved from the same spot, but i knew it was him because he would move a little bit. is he about to bite it or is he about to molt?
