She wasn't moving because the water was too cold for her.
I drained the tank, quickly grabbed Garlic & pooked her door, it stif there for she wasn't dead. If she was dead she would have been limp. So I moved her to a different spot in the tank, & a few mins later I added a bit of water (which was a bit warm) & then on my 3rd pucket she was moving around. So I figured it was too cold for her so I turned up the heater to 77F & shes super active now.

But Oscar hates me. I have the tank 1/2 filled, because I'm drugging the water & I have limited funds so I cut the water back & Iadd the meds for a 20 gallon insted of a 40 gallon. It'll stay this way for a week or 2, then I'll fill it up... But oscar has been attacking everything near her (rocks, glass rocks, bubble maker, the tank its self... heeheheh silly angry fishy

I'm glad Garlic is fine now and you found out what was wrong.

I was wondering though, you said you where putting in meds. Are your other guys sick? :(

Oscar will never be cured. She'll have to be druged about once a year to stay healthy
