Hello everyone!

I’m new to the forum, and excited to be here.

i just got two ADF. I am really enjoying seeing them dart around the tank. I do have some questions I’m hoping you guys could help me answer.

1. One of my little guys switches colour, from green to grey and back. It’s usually in a matter of a half an hour. Is this a sign of sickness?

2. ATM they are in a quarantine tank. It’s about 2.5 gallons. I’m waiting for my 35gallon to be cycled, and I’ll move them into their permanent home. That tank is about 18” deep, but I have added gravel, and there is lots of tall hard scrapping they could rest on. Should I be worried about them?

3. I’ve seen different advice about how much to feed them. But one thing that comes up a lot is ‘feed them until they are full’. How do I know they are full? Are they like fish, will they eat until they burst?


thanks everyone
