how it started,
I put it in a quarantine tank because of popeyes. as eye 'healed', move it back to the main tank.
few hours after move back to main tank, spot it swim erratically, darting around the tank while body... not swimming straight horizontal.
search similiar symptom, possibility cause: poor water, parasite, or swim bladder
I do water change before move it back to the main tank, as the main tank & quarantine tank have the same water.
the other fishs are alright in the main tank.
parasite... can't tell.
swim erratically support the swim bladder symptom
if swim bladder, I scroll around the forum.
anyway, I have done give the quarantine tank the medicine, yet can't help worrying as it is still in floating position.
can't post vid here
can't help?
ps. has anyone tried this method?
