Hi!

I have a really small endli (about 1,5 inch).

I think he ate to much food yesterday during feeding. Today His belly is really fat, and he is floating :confused:....

He trying to swim down to the bottom all the time, but he's just floating up to the surface again. Is this normal? I don't think he is sick because he was fine yesterday, but I know i put in a bit too much food in the tank.

He still has his eksternal gills. Im thinking it can be his swim bladder or something maybe just gas. Hope his not sick :cry: :cry:

A floating fish is usually not a god sign
 
sounds like trapped gas. hold feedings. it would not hurt to do a good water change, dose with some aquarium salt, and bring the temp up to low 80's. after that all you can do is wait.
 
aka bloat, oddball had a step by step procedure posted before
