Sleeping Jar???

[jardini715]

I just noticed that my Jar was chillen at the bottom of the tank and when I get close to the tank it starts swimming again!?! Is that normal?

 

[jardini715]

then when I leave the tank it goes back to the bottom it's weird

its stressed i suggest you remove the oscars

 

[jardini715]

I don't have no where to put the oscars

 

[jardini715]

does that mean it's dying?

No my RTG did that for ages, it's not stressed it's just lazy. I think you should put a power head in the tank to make more current. It will make you fish swim.
My RTG has no got gill curl which i'm now trying to correct before i take the drastic action of cutting. I'm pretty sure the fish not swimming was part of the cause.

does that mean it's dying?

no,it could be lazy or stressed because some stressed aros iv seen lay at the bottom

 

[jardini715]

It still hasn't eaten and it just floats around but still swimming upright and when it wants to it'll start swimming... But when I first got him he was swimming all over the place

 

[Gshock]

definitely not just lazy, maybe you do need relocate those oscars.

oscars are probably picking on it
