My 7 year old Aro is not doing so well; just did a 25% water change as a catch all and added new charcoal but he’s disoriented in the water, doing a lot of floating now, but swims head up and out and is mouth breathing quite a bit. He Started doing this and thought it was a new ‘hunting’ technique as he usually did/does this eating to find floating pellets but it seems this is more than likely not the case. Could this be trauma related? He often hits the glass lids while eating but I feel like that was an ‘after effect’ of this new head up routine. Honest not sure what to do? But not looking promising. Wish I could upload video. Attaching a few pics and snips of video. Testing water shortly.
