also i notice tonight she was not approaching the food. than she start dancing and making circles i put him in fresh water 10-20 sec. but after half hour or so she was gone.
The theory of a fw dip sounds good, but, in actuallity seems more stressfull than it's worth. I've considered it ,but, haven't tried it for various reasons. One of which bogie questioned. Was the fish healthy and eating when you brought it home. Did you acclimate correctly? Have you ever tried a fw dip? Don't want to buy shy fish(especially an angel). Picking out an angel requires spunk, eating, good coloration, and an overall look of health.
