Angelfish acting weird

[pmoney101]

Hi I walked in my house and my angelfish was laying on the bottom of the tank I went to the tank and it got up but started swimming verticle head up tail down and my other angelfish was nipping at it so I put the unhealthy angelfish in a little 10 gallon tank and it's seems to be swimming fine just a little shaken up what should my next step be

Try cranking up the temperature and put in some aquarium salt. I have bred angelfish for 3 years and I feel like that cures nearly everything naturally.

Ok thank you how long should I keep him in the qt tank for

 

[jbenefield13]

Just until he perks up and fills his fins back in. Should be a week or too

Thank you so much I have one last question I was wondering if you could help me figure out if my 2 angelfish are male or females

I would guess two males but angelfish are tricky. You can sort of see a hump developing on their heads if you look closely. Females have a more rounded head as opposed to a noticeable hump on the head of a male.

Ok thanks for all the help
