bubble tip deflates during the day. Starts to puff up later at night. Lights are off all night. In the morning it looks big and healthy, but as the day goes on it shrinks and looks terrible

From the threads I read it seems pretty normal but mine looks really pathetic today. He was attached upside down on his rock and bent around 90 degrees to poke out. This has been his spot since I put him in a week ago. Monday, he looked good and I fed him some mysis shrimp. Yesterday he wasnt out very long and today he hasnt been out at all. Please attach me to the help list. Thanks,
Copper

Hey guys,
I tested my water today and found it was in need of a water change. (I was going to do one this weekend anyway) Last night I did one. I got up in the middle of the night last night and looked in the tank and sure enough he was out, looking good as ever. Although he moved to the back of the tank. But at least I know hes ok.
These things really test your patience. Its hard to NOT do anything when something looks like its on its death bed. ...lol.
Good luck all,
Copper
