Framed by the picturesque Wasatch and Uninta Mountains is one of the most unique lakes in the world, the Great Salt Lake in North America, that is located northwest of Salt Lake City in the state of Utah. The water has a high salt content and few creatures are able to survive within its waters. However, numerous rare species of water fowl can be found along its banks. Salt water shrimp and brine shrimp are the staple diet of the birdlife that inhabits the Great Salt Lake and it is only in the tributaries of the lake that fish are to be found. Due to the loss of its natural outflows, the Great Salt Lake lost its water by evaporation, thus creating its saltiness. The lake’s four tributaries carried various minerals from the surrounding mountains into the lake and its salt content further increased. Depending on the water level, the salt content in some sections of the lake can reach up to twenty seven percent, only the Dead Sea contains more salt. The Great Salt Lake is a remarkable and unique lake and its origin and unusual beauty make it a true miracle of nature!

Lethargic Powder Blue Jack Dempsey :(?

I upgraded my 30 gallon tank with a powder blue jack dempsey (2-3 inches) and Angelfish to a 90 gallon tank a month ago. The angelfish seem happy as always as well as all the other fish in the tank, but the powder blue has changed… he used to follow me around everywhere, and at feeding time he would attack the flakes and gobble them all up in a second.

When I moved him in, he stopped trying to get the food, and has just been staying at around the same spot, near a sword plant. I’ve tried feeding him flakes, pellets, bloodworms, brine shrimp, ect… no good on any of them.

He sometimes goes to swim somewhere else, but most of the time I just see him there. His colors have darkened up by a LOT which contradicts all his other symptoms, but he seems skinnier and much less active.

Even if I try to hand-feed him or put the food closer to him, he just doesn’t seem interested. I haven’t seen him eat in a couple of days. He’s been in the tank for about a month now.

Any suggestions? :(
The only thing that I think might make sense is that he feels lost in the tank? Before I guess he was confident because it was his “turf”, but now there’s so much more (bigger) fish than him, I guess he doesn’t feel as confident or something.

Maybe I need to put another powder blue jack to keep him company, but I’m nervous and I consider myself lucky that this jack dempsey turned out to be so peaceful.

I can’t put him in my other tanks, because they all have small fish like neon tetras that wouldn’t have a chance. Right now I would say he’s about 3 1/2 inches.
Ammonia is at 0, nitrite at 0, nitrate at 10, ph at 7.4 — all other fish seem healthy, except the depressed dempsey. :/
