Boesemani rainbow fish twitching and shaking? What does it mean

[Valentino_]

I got 4 boesemani rainbow fish for my 55 gallon tank a week ago and now 2 of them have started shaking uncontrollably.

it started when they where swimming under one of my cherry barbs and they would start looking up at it and shaking.

check the water quality

do a big water change, gravel clean substrate, clean filter media in bucket of tank water and re-use media.

add salt (2 heaped tablespoons of rock salt per 20 litres of water). keep salt in tank for 2 weeks.

monitor for white spots or patches (external protozoan parasites). salt should help.
