Ice Blue Runt

[kniesh]

Hi guys. I bought a couple of Ice Blue for my90 gal malawi about 1 week ago. One of them just seems to be not well tho, since I got them actually. He has started just gulping at the top now. Everything is fine with the tank, all the other fish are fine so I was thinking of just putting him in with my bumblebee gobies for a few days to see if he improves. At the moment there is next to no salt at all in there as I change the levels by not adding any salt during water changes etc.. He is only about an inch lng mayb a bit more but is bout the same size as the gobies. Will he be ok in there for a while s I think he is just deteriating in the big tank?

Do you put your fish in a quarantine tank when you first bring them home? If there's something wrong with him, disease-wise, he may be infecting 2 of your tanks, if you transfer him. I'm not familiar with his particular fish, though so hopefully someone who is will visit and help you out. Good luck!
