I need to get some advice, if you don't mind. I added my two Heckels to my 60 gallon.
It's been 3 days. And I added them to a trio of Rio Negro Heckels. The three were doing fine,
healthy and vibrant until I added the new ones. I had the lights off for a couple days, and my
temperature may have lowered. But now the three are all dark, and their fins are clamped.
I have a small one, not the strong one in the bunch that seems to be bouncing into the glass.
Another one has a cloudy, and is listless on it's side being supported by a rock. I added salt
and raised the temperature. Do you think they got hit with something, sickness, or are they
just really stressed because there are new inhabitants, that are bigger than they are, in the
tank.
