(a bunch of my other fish have had ripped fins but they all healed very well) hes been lying around, and trying to escape the female krib when she comes around, his colour is normal but a bit subdued, he could be brighter, but he looks good enough, he lies on the powerhead where there isnt any current.

Other comments:
i had a pair of kribs and the male died after a week or so, but the female is doing great, i got a new male (warrenty) and hes a big smaller or the same size as the female, which i know may lead to bullying.

did i miss anything?

I would issolate him.

Clamped fins can be stress to desease.
Does he act list listless and lethagic.
Does he tilt to oneside when laying on the filter.
Any sores or red streaking on his body.
is he still eating.
What does it look like when he goes to the toilet.
Is he bloated or thin.
Any signs of darting,or flicking and rubbing.

he looks ok now, he was just acclimatizing i think, he still sleeps on the powerhead, but hes swimming around and eating, i think hes just not used to as much flow as i have in my tank.

Something not right if he still resting on the filter.
Turn the filter flow down.
Is the filter blowing the new fish about in the tank. Are they stuggling with the current and getting exhausted.

How long did you climatise the new fish for.
What was the ph of the store to your tank.
