Help please! Bloated stomach

Post by Atlas »

Hi,

I've just bought a L14 and added it into a quarantaine tank. The Q tank has a L25 in it also under Q for about a week already.

1 day later, the L25's stomach became bloated and started to "float". :(
The newly introduced L14 seems quite OK though.

What has happened? What should I do now, any medication to use?

Your help is really needed.

hi try to water change and add heater with a temp of around 32-34. Put some chloromycetin to your tank. Ps. this is for humans also. So It could be purchased at a Local drug store.. Gud luck hope this helps :D
