Yes im new to the fish collecting hobby.
i bought a tank about two weeks ago and did two partial water cycles. one %25 and the second %50. I have a 52g freshwater tank. I bought test kits yesterday for pH and No2. pH was 7.5-8.0 and the No2 was 0.3mg/l. They were active when i bought them,, and they are active when i feed them. but lately they have been just laying down on the bottom sideways. I asked the guy who i bought the tank+fish from, he said that the parrot fish tend to get shy and need about a week or two to adjust to the surrounding enviroment. I dont know about this, but what im seeing is that they "look" sick. The other fish are ok. Oscars, Lionheads, Angelfish, tetra neons.
I will keep doing the partial %25 water cycle for a couple of weeks that was what i was adviced.
What else do i need to do ?
