MadSci Network: Zoology |
To this day i don't know if fish sleep, so I can only tell you that they do rest sometimes and when they do they don't move much. I suspect your black fish is sick and you should probably consult the pet store who sold it to you or at least talk to them about different treatent options. Without more information I cannot tell specifically might be wrong with your fish. On the other hond, it might just be adjusting to its new environment, but that should only take a couple of hours. If your fish doesn't start acting like the other one soon, talk to your pet store.
