Been out the game for around 10 years. And recently got back into it the last month.

Picked up a 6-7 inch tem this evening.

Since being in the tank he's been swimming about sluggish and bumping into the glass and filter system.

He just dosn't seen right. Although since I've added more filteration to the tank he seems a little better. He's now hanging toward the top water layer and occasionally looks like he's taking air. Although all the other fish are doing just fine. Tank temp is at 30c. I don't have any kit left to use to check the ph,water, ect ,till I can run and get one in the morning.

He seems to be recovering Abit now. Would it be worth doing a water change?
Although he's only been in the tank 3 and half hours.

Having a little panic. I've tried to add as much information as I can.

Any suggestions.
Thanks.
 
He's fine this morning. Think it was just the stress of a new tank.
