My jack dempseys have been acting way different the last 2 days... They won't even swim or move for that matter unless I bang on the glass...even if the light is off they still just sit there with there Fins pinned back.. All my numbers in my tank are perfect so it has nothing to do with that.... What could be going on? They look stressed for some reason and I have no idea why.

temp? any chance stray current? bullying? new additions?
 
Its always at 78 to 79...im not sure what a stray current is.? And no new additions just the pair of jack dempseys... They keep rubbing on everything but they have no spots at all... If the male starts rubbing off things the female will follow suit
 
im not sure what a stray current is.?
A stray electrical current. :) Although I'm not sure how to find out if there is a stray current in your tank.. Someone more experienced than me will be able to help you with that.
 
I'm pretty sure that's not the case being since I don't stick my hands in my tank and get shocked...
