Hi guys

i have sick male festa. Superficially there does not seem anything wrong him, no HITH, fungus, white spot, cloudy eyes etc. the problem is he doesn't seem to be able to swim or stay upright properly. he either rests against something or lies on his side. he hides all the time. from time to time he jerks. his colour is fine and he eats well time to time. still shows aggression to the texas .

i presume there might be something to do with his swim bladder. i have tried various meds-clout, met, melafis etc.

Any infomation will be great.
 
I say take a long break from meds. Clean out his tank and give him time to chill out. Also you might consider isolating him and see if he comes around within the next few weeks. Got any pics?
