Huge problem please help

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Looks like something is wrong with its swim bladder.
 
the side fins are all nicked up, he's been messed with for awhile. Chances are he's got some internal problems, like was said above the swim bladder, his color is awesome, so there's no sign of stress although I'm sure he is. Beautiful ocellaris, I would seperate him with alot of aeration, add melafix and stop feeding until he regains his momentum. But definetly seperate him, lights off etc., he doesnt need anymore stress to the injury.
 
mine did that yesterday. Mine is a Tem and only about 2.5 inches. He was dead in about an hour. I did the same thing by checking to see if something was stuck in his throat but nothing. Mine didnt make it. I hope yours does. Sorry.
 
i lost a small mono to that same act. looks as though he got his pretty hard on one of his sides. mines has the scar on the side and the fins were nipped also. looks to be a fight to me of some sort.
 
looks to me like his swim bladders filled with air, was jetting around and hit the glass super hard or took a good blow to the head from another fish.
