8O Hi All I hope someone can help me. I have a N.korthause mafia island tan02-5 killii. last night he had a stroke/seizure somthing realy blew me away. Its happened 3 times that I know of twice last nite around midnight and once this morning. Here's what happened as I observed it. Last night i was chopping up my frozen red worms to feed my fish. My killii was at front of tank waiting to be fed swimming around in anticipation looking normal. Then all of a sudden Bing Bing Bing ricochet rabbit all over the tank (10gal). He ended up on the bottom gills flared spasing and not breathing. I thought I just wittnessed my fish die right before my eyes. I reached for my net and I noticed that he started breathing again. I took a long piece of tubing and gently nudged him he started doing the uncontrolled swimming dying fish do. Then he righted himself but was clearly still not in control. After about 2 min he started swimming more normaly but with tailend still hanging I call this taidragging. When he stops and hovers he sort of sinks tail first. I still don't have a clue as to what happened I did remove him from tank with his wives to a holding pin in my 20 Gal last night thinking maybe something in tank caused it. But it happened this morning right before my eyes again this morning. I took pics will post them also. Do fish have strokes/seizures? Sincerely Curtis
