Fish Lying Sideways!

[AaronSeah]

Hi, I just bought 2 new fishes from the pet shop and when I was transferring them to a temporary container, I realised they were lying down sideways and swim only on the most bottom areas. I'm not sure what breed are those so it would be great if you could help! The pink fish just jump out of the water when I went near it. They aren't eating any food either. Please help! I really wish they'll be ok. Sorry for my poor English!

i'm not sure what those are, but they are most likely just stressed from the move. if you can get them settled in a tank and just keep an eye on them, it'll be easier to tell if they are sick or just stressed.

They look like coloured (dyed) widow tetra to me...
If they are that may explain why they aren't very lively as they are probably stressed out and unwell from the dyeing process.
However, I could be wrong so you might want a second opinion on that.
