Hello!
I currently have a fire fish that is either swimming vertically (nose down) or on its side. It has no external symptoms (curves, lumps, etc). It is in QT tank with a blue tang, clown fish, watchman goby, and skunkback. The reason for the QT is the blue tang had velvet so I took everything out of the display tank to treat with cupramine and paraguard. This started after a water change. At first I thought it was an amonia spike to 1.0 (all other reasons normal and in range). So I changed more water out (about another 5 gal) and added Amguard. He's not really eating. Tried to give him mashed peas (after other questionable Google searches). Also tried putting kanaplex into the QT tank as well. I'm at a loss of what to do. Any suggestions?
