Asking for some opinions. My Chrysus has come out daily and eaten well each day. The biocellatus only once out of 5 days but ate everything I put in that day. That was the second full day of QT. Fish were received on the 18th.
Should I be concerned or is the biocellatus still just trying to find it's happy place? I suppose it is possible it comes out between the hours of 11pm and about 8am when I haven't typically checked on them. But the one day it did come out was a little after noon and it went back into the sand around 6pm.
I'm mainly wondering at what point do I search for a body and claim my 14-day guarantee? I'm willing to give it time but honestly if I don't see it by next weekend I'm inclined to believe it didn't make it and is just rotting in the sand...
On the bright side, ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates haven't spiked yet.
QT details:
29gal biocube with 2" sand bed, one small piece of LR, and some PVC pipes. BC return pump, koralia nano PH, skimmer with no cup for aeration, and a regular air pump with air stone.
