- Help!
-
- I purchased a black ghost knife a week ago, and I don't think
- that he's doing very well. He's swimming *sideways*, much to
- my distress. The water in the tank tests okay, and all the
- other fish are fine. I have yet to see him eat, although
- I've been offering bloodworms, brine shrimp and flakes. He
- does, however come out of his tube, and nose around in the gravel.
- I saw him suck up a couple tubifex (I tried feeding those, too)
- but I'm not sure if they were actually ingested, or just spit
- out when I wasn't looking. One interesting aside, one of
- the people at the store I purchased the knife from said
- to feed it guppies, which I thought was odd, cos' the knife
- has a teeny tiny mouth. Any info would be greatly appreciated
- because it really is a cool fish, and I'd be kinda bummed if
- it died. Thanks in advance!
