eye with Pseudanthias lori?

0

Hi Bob, Please help! I purchased a seemingly healthy Pseudanthias lori (approx. 3.5″ from end to end) 5 days ago for my reef tank. I floated it in the bag for about 15 minutes, and then acclimated it for about 30 minutes by taking a cup of tank water and putting it into a bucket that the P. lori was in. After the volume in the bucket doubled, I netted the fish out and placed it in my reef tank. As soon as I placed it in the tank, it sank to the bottom of the tank and remained there breathing very heavily. It didn’t move from its spot for the remainder of the day. I turned off all of the lights just to make sure it wouldn’t get more stressed. I saw it later that night and it was still breathing very heavily.
