Hey guys. I've had Murray for about a year now, and he's always been a ferocious eater. But tonight, he showed little interest. I usually feed him in a separate tank in attempt to keep his water as clean as possible, and he's always downed his food faster than I can serve it. He eats mainly blood worms, since I've yet to find anything else in my area that is readily available and easy to purchase, and he seems to love them.

I took a few pictures that I've attached. Nothing about his appearance has changed, I don't see any bloating or discoloring. He just seems super lethargic. I did test his water last week and it was in the normal range, but this week it seems higher than normal. Could that be the issue? I've included a picture of tonights test, as well.

For now, I've got him in a smaller tank, submerged just enough for the water to stay the right temp, but filled with clean, filtered water with a splash of water conditioner in it. I figure I will keep him in there over night until tomorrow, when I can trouble shoot his tank.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
