I bought this fish 8 days ago. In the LFS it was active and swimming around with other fish in the tank. I put it in the QT and it immediately hid behind a rock. Normal I thought and it came out when I fed it and ate.
Well 8 days later and it still was hiding behind the rock, only coming out when it was fed. This evening it was dead.
I tested the water completely on Sunday morning before the lights came on.
T: 77
SG: 1.026
pH: 7.8
Ammonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 0
Given that the fish died, I retested and this is what I got tonight
T: 82
SG: 1.021
pH: 8.3
Ammonia: 0
Nitrite: 0
Nitrate: 0
Any ideas?
Thanks, John
