My mantis is acting weird and I don't know why, he is laying at the bottom of the tank out in the open, he is breathing but rarely moves, at first I though he was molting but he has been like this for TWO days now, and I'm worried as hell.....................
I checked my Amonia, it's at 0, but my Nitrites are at 0.2 which is a little high, so I was going to do a water change. Are Mantis Shrimps sensitive to Nitrites? I have two and the other one is fine, he is the larger of the two....could it be my Temp, Water quality, or some kind of sickness? they can survive chemical baths, Id've though a little Nitrite isn't too bad.......
My Damsels are fine and seem to be up to their usual ruckuss................Anyone got some insight?
Oh, I threw in a red claw into my tank, my Damsels actually attacked it, but eventually he got a devastating blow to the mouth my my smaller Mantis and this rendered him a knock out..................But I want to save my big one, is there anything I should do?
