So after a month of so of research and setting up my ideal tank/cycling I finally bought my first clownfish. :bounce:
When we first introduced him to the tank last night he was nervous but then seemed to explore around and would usually treck back to the top left corner near the surface of the tank. I read that sometimes fish will do this if there is not enough oxygen in the water so I checked all my chemical levels (ammonia, nitrites, nitrates) and they all checked out perfect. My temp. is steady at 79F. I didn't check the salt though which I should have and will when I get home.
He simply just stays at the top near the surface and occasionally moves down for a quick minute. Would this because he is still nervous or oxygen related?
Thanks!
