Kaykay's Office Nano. "Keeping sanity at work"

Thanks. Will go take a look if possible tmr.

Yup she did come by twice to take a look and passed some lame remarks. Me thinks the puffer may have been spooked. Lol.

On a serious note, quite rapid breathing is observed, but I do not know if the rate is rapid or normal. Same rate for 10 hrs.

It's still moving gracefully though, during the few times it moved.

Well I'll continue monitoring.

Thanks.

If the rapid breathing persists for days, the oxygenation may be insufficient or the gills are badly damaged.

It seems pretty normal for me.. As all my old toby used to do that a lot... Not many suggestion as it is a small tank and if the toby have already define its territory, they are a terror to whatever you add... Try a goby or blenny...

Are triggers of the same size ok?

A TRIGGER IN A NANO??? I admit i did that mistake but it is not feasible in long term, the trigger gets too nippy..
