    Angel Fish Nose Up

    I have high level of Nitrate and I put in Prime conditioner last night and notice my Angel Fish swimming with her nose up today. Her fins are moving. Up to today, she was swimming fine and eating. I also saw her hide. I do have other fish in the 30 gallon fresh water aquarium.
