My BGK is acting really strange. He almost never comes out during the day but he came out tonight and was swimming around really strange. He would quickly zoom up to the surface and then he would all the sudden stop, become still, and sink to the bottom. At times, he would be swimming at the bottom of the tank and then would suddenly become still and would fall asleep. When I tapped on the glass, he suddenly came back to life. Now he's just laying on his side quietly at the bottom of the tank. I've seen him sleep like this before, but I just don't know. He's acting very strange. I've seen him act odd before, but it was normal BGK activity. I've just never seen him become very active and then suddenly stop and become still like this. Is it normal?
All water paremeters are fine. No ammonia, no nitrites, very little nitrates. pH is stable.
Any idea what might be going on? Swim bladder disease? Something else?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
