I have a Black Phantom Tetra and I really shouldn't be cracking up over this, but it is hillarious to watch.
I have had her (it is a female) since the 15th of this month (12 days now). When I first got them the backup trip didn't seem to do this one well. I got her into the main tank and she righted herself and seemed fine.
What is bothering me is I have noticed a funky loopedy loop that actually looks like a spasm now that I have seen it closer.
It is intermittent and occasional and is very definitely not death throws since this has been going on for more than week.
She gets swimming along, like today coming up for food, then just suddenly starts doing circles like a loopedy loop in a plane? You know where they go up to upside down then down and back.
This happens about 4 times then she rights herself and is okay again. They are very rapid.
It isn't a current issue as it is not affecting other fish and it happens in spots where there is little current?
Any advice help is appreciated. I have taken to calling her funky because of it, but I don't think this is normal at all.
