Well, to cut a long story short, I was catching my pygmys today to take to a LFS. I went to the store and returned around 15 minutes later to find a cory on the shelving unit, next to the tank, flopping around. I put it in the tank (around 2 hours ago now) and they seem to be ok - not moving much at all (understandably, I guess), only part of it I think I've seen move was it's eye, once. It's also the only fish in the tank now, so I don't imagine it'll want to be moving much anyway aside from its experience.

Was wondering if anyone had experienced this themselves or had any tips/advice/"things to look for" type stuff. If all seemed well, I was thinking of taking it to join the other 4 at the store tomorrow, do you think this would be ok?

Thanks :good:
 
A quick update. I've spotted the fish swimming around, surely a good sign? If it's swimming, should it be fine to take to the store tomorrow?
 
I'd give it another day or so, just to be sure it's ok

I was rather hoping to get the tank all re-done, or at least started being re-done, by later today. If the fish still seems ok, do you think I could take it to the store later on today?
