Only had the tank a few weeks started getting fish last week, only have a problem with one of the fish which is the lemon tetra who just seems bouyant. All the other fish are ok, he does appear a bit fatter than the other one we got.

swimbladder disease. probably caused by the high levels of ammonia in a fish in cycle. Please have a read though the beginners resource centre...

Checked on the fish all seems fine now, some of the other places i read that he may be constipated? All the tests are fine, so just hoping he will be ok
