Well, the simplest thing to try is to slowly raise the GH and PH to see if that changes the mood of the fish. Get the KH to at least 4 German degrees. Baking soda can get you there. It may take a few weeks for an adjustment period in the fish's behavior.Good point, and yes sorry about sticking the oh value in there it was supposed to be GH(measured weekly). The gh is usually between 0-75 and KH ~ 0 as well

Some recent changes. The 185ltr stocklist is now
1x pair calico convicts (young)
1x silver flying fox
4x ancistrus
The convicts spawned immediately (shocker)
Here is my friend Lúlli with a mouthfull

Thank you. The wolf has been gaining some girth and a tiny bit of length, also has started showing better colors.
Btw I am absolutely in love with the convicts, so entertaining.
Here is my first attempt at summer-tubbing. I don’t think anyone in Iceland does this. It is a 400 liter tub and I put 10 white clouds and 8 neocardinia shrimp in it. It’s got no tech at all.
First round of summer tubbing went okay. All shrimp survived but all of them were male so no breeding. 6 or 8 of the white clouds survived and at first I thought they did not breed but it turns out their fry are absolutely microscopic and I did not notice them until it was too late (right as I finished syphoning all of them into my backyard). But all of this is just good experience to learn from.
Lúlli (my wolf) is now solo in a 200 liter tank and doing really good. He shared the tank with a blood parrot for a while but the parrot whas nipping a bit too much so I rehomed him. Lúlli is loving life, lurking in the vegitation and eating earthworms or convict fry every day. His tank is sitting on my first ever DIY stand/rack btw (very proud). Here are some pics:
