Innactivity

Post by IMS08 » Sat Nov 15, 2014 4:47 pm

I have 2 medium and 4 small PPs in a 30 gallon tank. I have upgraded recently and have added various decorations such as wood, fake plants, a larger salt water dish and climbing walls. I feel since I have upgraded, they have all been pretty lethargic. They sit in the tank and if I lift them, they walk away from me but otherwise, they sit still. I keep the tank at a consistent 80 degrees and mist their tank once a day. I have fed them every other night and have 8 inches of Eco-earth substrate so they could destress or molt if they wanted to, which 4 of them have. I just don't know why they are so slow and lethargic. Any ideas?

They might be about to molt, I know being lethargic is a pre molt sign.
