Aquarium Advice Addict
My new dwarf gourami is laying on his side on the gravel. I freaked out because I thought he was dead but his eyes were moving. So I open the hood and he swims up to the top- but it wasn't a "ha ha im just playing" swim... something is seriously wrong.
Earlier I caught him with his mouth at the top of the water (almost like he wasn't getting enough air) so I turned the airpump on just in case and now he is very slow and just sick.
I checked my waters and I have those cr*ppy sticks that you dip in the water.. and as far as I can tell the ammonia isn't high and the pH sticks aren't reading (i think they have gone bad)
Its a 29gal and the only other fish in there is my 7in pleco.
Any ideas whats wrong? He is a young fish n stuff
