new tank, 48 gallon bow front, with live sand, used bio spira, ph 7.021, temp 75, ph 8.2 no rocks (for now but thinking bout getting some)
added two antennata lionfish 3 days ago, they were 1.5 inches each.
i do 30 percent water changes because i think the bio spira did not work.
yesterday one of them died, and the other one ate two ghost shrimps.
besides this, they just stay at the corner and do not swim around.
what are some signs that they might be sick?
i kno the lionfish is scared but what can i do?
My question is, in the beginning is this normal? when do they constantly start swimming around?
any tips? (im thinking that getting rocks will help? any prefered types?)
