Hello all!
I am new here and am not sure if I am posting in the correct spot but I have a question. I bought a rather large Oranda last Friday evening. He has a nice round shape and fairly large wen. However, he's been spending a lot of time swimming or simply resting upside down at the top of the tank. Sometimes he's at the bottom bottom side up. I know Orandas are not necessarily proportionately built but I am concerned. My Ryukin nibbled at the Oranda's wen last nigh which has me nervous. The Oranda doesn't appear to have any infections but does appear to have a small piece of his wen that looks detached but when I looked last night there doesn't appear to be any infection but are some black spots that I cannot tell if they are his coloring or..... Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks and I am excited to be a new member here!

P.S.
I have a 60 gallon aquarium with an air pump and I believe a total of 150 GPH which I have since learned I need to increase once I can figure out how to get the tank away from the wall to make the change.
