About LinkBacksHello, Ive had a hippo tang tang for five years, she is about 5" long and has shown no signs of any other health issues but tonight she cannot stay in the middle to lower half of the tank without seriously vigorous swimming! She will then go down and wedge in a rock to rest! I feel so bad for her. She doesn't have a swollen belly and is still eating normally. Any ideas to what could be going on? All the tank levels are right on par btw.

Re: Hippo tang buoyancy issue!
Probably swim bladder disease.
I really hate it when people say "it's only a $3/$5/$1 fish/shrimp, so it's ok if it dies" TREAT ALL ANIMALS LIKE THEY COST $10,000!!!!!!http://dragcave.net/image/QnMBQ.gifhttp://dragcave.net/image/DCQDb.gifhttp://dragcave.net/image/8qT9W.gifhttp://dragcave.net/image/CP52M.gifhttp://dragcave.net/image/P7mZ4.gifplease click a link, it's nothing bad.
