    need help sick red turk :(

    hi guys sorry to ask another question about my discus as it must get anoying

    I have RT's and i moved them into a new tank 4 out of the 5 have been perfectly fine not a thing wrong with them but the most Dominant/bossiest and would chase the others away when food time now is hiding all the time but he isn't cramped up in a corner or anything just sitting at the back of the tank or might be right at the front but his colour won't change he hasn't eaten in about 4 days now and i'm getting a little worried as the others are eating swimming chasing my angel etc etc

    So if has me stumped whats wrong with him the only thing i could put it down to is that he might be pi$$ed becuase he is now got a large angel to contend with and all the other fish..

    Like i said i'm most likely worried about nothing but won't your oppions on what you guys think...

    PS: look at his head looks like a yellow colour while his body is darkish colour

    It also looks like he is taking really deep breaths and he will keep hiding and then comes right out into the middle of the tank but he has a pale head and darkish bosdy though..

    Thanks guys..

    To add to this thread, I recently seperated two BT's from two RT's, due to bullying.

    One of my Blues was always smaller than the others, and hasnt eaten for four days now.

    Heres hoping they snap out of it.

    Here some new pics in one of the pics i circled the black spots i could see.

    He won't eat still i mean i put tetra bits in the tank while he was in the middle of the tank and he just just ignored them while all the other fish were going crazy





    Does the laterial line on him look really disstinctive?

    Cheers

    Is this the same fish you have posted about in the other threads in illness?
    I think it is dead now is that right?
    How are the others doing?
    Life is too serious to be taken seriously.......
