Hi
I am a fairly new freshwater tank owner, I have a a neon tetra who has been pointing up for a few days, he is still eating but looks uncomfortable . Today he has resorted to sitting on the floor all morning probably out of exhaustion. I think his gills look a little red too. I did a 20% water change on Monday and am also treating the tank for swim bladder. One of the other neons has swimbladder problems and has 2 good days and then the next day he spends floating on the surface, this seems to be his pattern as its been 2 weeks now for him.
I am more worried about the little guy on the floor of the tank as he really doesnt look happy today.
I have fed them peas as I saw this sometimes helped but nothing helps him so far.
Any ideas? Thank you x
