I’ve had my boy dijon for about two years now but somewhat recently in the last few months he’s started to have trouble swimming, idk if it’s relevant but he was originally in a 20gal long with 3 mosquito fish and a pleco but after about a year I realized he was tearing his fins on the new rocks I had added for the pleco so I set him up a seperate 10 gal just for him and some shrimp in December. He was doing great and his fins are growing back -but- he’s starting to sink and doesn’t float at the surface to chill anymore, I don’t know if it’s because he has less tail? Or if it’s something from the new tank-which I had used rocks plants and some water from the original tank to jump start the process and let it cycle for a couple weeks just in case- but I’m mostly concerned about the fact that he looks pale, his black sections used to be nice and dark, pretty solid. However I’ve noticed the last few days he’s looking paler and doesn’t swim up to say hi at the glass as often anymore and when he does he just stares at me, he used to be so attentive and engaged but now he looks so sad and bored? A few videos for reference but guys how can I help my boy I don’t want to lose him and I’m getting worried.
