i got a new black moore yesterday, and it was doing fine. but today it is at the bottom of the tank and i think it is sick. when i fed him, he ate and became anegetic again, but is now back at the bottom of the tank, should i isolate him from the rest of the tank or wait to see what happends? in the tank their are only 4 guppy's and 1 sucker.

Well, i would buy at least a 10 gallon tank just for him, i guess your temperature might be to high for him to handle since you must have a heater with guppies
here is an article on proper habitat for godfish

feels like hes have been given fungus on his eye and white spot on his physique,my suggestion is pump the heater as much as 30o Celsius and get him some all around medicine , as at puppy shop for a treatment for fungus and white spot.Then after some days while he feels like hes properly returned,turn down the heater and he could desire to be ok.

what size tank is it? did you acclimate him or just put him right in?
