Any ideas what's wrong with my jd

[Alexander342]

He's in a 150L breeder with a healthy female, about 200 fry and he's just started lying on the bottom almost upside down. Any ideas?

Check your water levels, temperature, see if he's injured, check your oxygen levels, and if you can take him out put him alone and put in some melafix usually heals any injuries that he may possibly have if he's not injured look into some other medications that can possibly help out

Ok thanks

I thought the fry would get affected by any water problems first but they're fine and I can't see any injuries on him

How old is the male JD ?

Sometimes the female will turn on the male and beat them to death but you don't see any wounds. If it was a water issue the fry would be dead or dying off.

You do have a point there it's hard to tell really since everything is negative do try separating them like I mentioned hopefully he will be ok

He died :'( but the fry survived and I'm not sure how old he was.
