Aquarium Advice Freak
ok, so last night i'm watching my tank, and i notice that my goldfish is acting a bit odd. he keeps swimming in the middle of the tank, but then he seems to stop and he just floats up to the top as if he cant help it. i watched him for a half hour or so and he never once made it to the bottom of the tank. it reminded me of a little kid with swimmies on their arms desperately trying to touch the bottom of the pool but giving up and being pulled back up to the top from the air attached to their arms.
so i was worried. but this morning he's all over the bottom again like always, and he's seems to be fine.
maybe he just swallowed too much air when he was eating? i really dont know if that's even possible.
so if anyone could give some advice it'd be appreciated.
my peremiters are normal,
ammonia 0
nitrate 0
nitrite 20
ph 7.6
he's in a 10 gallon tank that's been set up for a month or so.
nothing else in the tank except a small snail.
he's been eating normal too.
Thanks in advance!
Oh and he's a oranda goldfish whose 2inches, 3 if you include his tail. if that matters at all.
thanks again!
