Hi Chris

Thats no good. :(

How are your water parameters ? Ammonia, nitrite ?

Also how often do you do water changes ?

What is your temp ?

Have you tried elevating your water temp to about 32 degrees ? Treating with aquarium salt and increasing your water changes ?

Water parameters OK
6.8
0 nitrates
0 nitrites
0 Amonia


I use salts a water changes,
I think he may be a bit of a sook.
Im worming these guys for the first time Tommorrow.
I think he may end up being a good friend of mine he allways lets me hand feed him and he lets me pat him.
