care for a sick moray eel

Post by FoxNova9 »

hey guys, got a moray eel that's been acting weird lately - it just lies on its back, only moving its mouth and head, anyone got a clue what's going on? is it possible it's paralyzed or something?

To help you out, I've got a few questions - what's your tank size, and how long has it been set up? What are your parameters looking like - pH, specific gravity, nitrate, ammonia, and nitrite levels? What type of system are you running? Also, how long have you had the eel, and what's its diet like?
