Need help for sick clown
My TR Ocellaris Clown has begun to hang around the top of the tank. It will swim down 6-8" then return to the surface. It reminds my of swim bladder problems in FW fish. The fish's respiration is not labored and no discoloration. I have had it for one week and it has been eating(frozen brine shrimp, flake, fresh fish, krill) and seemed to have adjusted nicely to the tank(first fish in the tank). My water parameters are all good:
SG - 1.026 Temp - 80 pH - 8.2 no ammonia or nitrites Any ideas on the problem/treatment? |

Do you have some other fish in the tank which is picking on the new clown?
I had two clowns that spent the first month just hanging at the surface. They finally got accustomed to the tank and started moving around. Karun |
