yes... sadly it Would have been and I stress "Would". She wasn't in the tank for more than a few hours and just died. I tested the water parameters all of which turned out fine and my other b/n has been doing absolutely great.

Water levels were as follows:

<0.3 mg/l no2-
12.5 mg/l no3-
0 mg/l Nh+Nh4
7.5 pH
78F Temp.

Talked to the store owner I bought the fish from and he said I could have floated it too long. I brougt in a sample of my water and everything checked out with him, so he gave me another b/n in good health for five dollars instead of twenty. It's in the tank right now and I watch it for a few hours and seems fine if not a stressed.

the new b/n is doing great and the male is doing good as well. I added some d/w back into the tank and some slate, to make some more places for them to hide. The male has chosen to dig under the d/w and make a cave of sorts under there. The new b/n is a bit more outgoing than the male and spends most of it's time just swimming around the bottom of the tank cleaning the substrate here and there.

Thank you John, She seems to be doing good. I see her a lot more than the male, but I catch glimpse's of him every once and awhile. He loves the driftwood.
