she doesnt bask at all anymore.
she eats fine.
waters clean.
she doesnt look/act sick
comes up for air regularly.
what is going on?
she stopped basking like 2-3 weeks ago maybe even a month now.(which is really concerning me)
i put her in dry tank to keep her getting dry.
but why does she sleep so much?
because shes old and not curious of surroundings anymore? (which im fine with lol)
shes currently in a temp tank 20g because i had to reseal my 55g but shes only been in for 1 day so dont say thats the problem
she also has a pleco with her as well 12" dunno if that could effect it.
i could post pics on how far the light is and the uvb.(which she never basks when i have the uvb on) if you want.
but if there is any other info you need i can provide it.
