in front of my cichla tank,IL
what should i do cuz i dont wanna lose my orino. he is swiming all strange i think that he has a problem with his swimbladder and it just keeps getting worse:(:(:cry:
 
isolate (use the same exact water), raise temp to 87 (slowly) if you havent already along with dissolved oxygen. then turn off the lights. if i were you id throw in another bass into the qt tank so that its not alone. thats all i can think of
 
thanks for the help. but its to late he passed a few hours ago and i keep the water at 87-89 and i have plenty of oxygen. this is the second time this has happen and it is the second orino i lost. what causes swimbladder problems?
 
thanks
and i feed them frozen silver sides, frozen krill, gold fish once a while, and hikari sinking carnivore pellets for the 2 that actually eat them.
