Hello All. I have a tiger barb that has become disabled and I'm wondering if any of you know what it is and how to treat it. She (I think she's a girl due to her being more round shaped, which I read was a way to tell the difference) has gone quite pale over the last week or so and now seems to have a problem with swimming. She eats just like the rest and tries to keep up, but she'll swim a ways and it's like she gets paralyzed and sort of floats head down for a second or so and then resumes like nothing happened...like she just snapped out of it. This behavior started a couple of days ago. Water parameters are perfect. 0 ammonia, 0 nitrites, and nitrates are about 20. Wondering if anyone can help with this. Thanks, in advance.
