Zebra danio is swimming strangely!

[richardhmc]

Hi, in my 10 planted tank I have a long-fin zebra danio that is swimming on its side and then sinks down to the bottom - this has been going on for 3 days and I tried to add salt but nothing happened.. what could be wrong?

anyone?

is it newer to the tank? or have there been any changes in the tank as far as temperature or anything?

 

[Bethany]

if it's too warm it may not be getting enough oxygen, i honestly can't think of much unless something has changed in the tank

a lot of my danios seem to get sudden death syndrome. All of a sudden they start sinking, or swimming crooked, then they get really thin, then they die. I have no idea why

that happened to my glo-lite danios, literally for no reason. they have short life spans.

Airbladder?

Aww damn.. umm not much change.. the water temp goes up and down cuz the light is so hot but other than that.. thats it... oxygen. i dont think so cuz the ACs make little waterfalls with air reaching down

zebra danio is now swimming correctly fine but im still sure that its not in good health
