Aquarium Advice Newbie
I adopted a 2 year old calico telescope eye from a family that was moving and could no longer keep their fish tank. He's large, about the size of my hand but he doesn't seem to be doing well. At first I thought he had a swim bladder problem that maybe the previous owners were either negligent or uninformed of how to treat, but now I'm not so sure. He rarely swims, is listless, and just lays upside down. He doesn't float, just finds some plants, turns upside down and chills for hours, like he's depressed. Any advice as to what's wrong with him and how I can help his quality of life? Maybe it's just me, but it's like his lethargy is putting a funk in my other goldfish and they're not as perky as they used to be. Please, if anyone can advise me.... In the tank, I have 2 hand sized orandas, 1 smaller oranda, and 1 smaller ranchu, 55 gallon tank.
