Hi all! I bought a male cremesicle molly about 5 days ago. In the last 2-3 days, he has been hiding in the back of the tank behind the plants, tail up and head down. When he actually does come out, when he swims he tries to swim normally but when he stops swimming his tail seems to gravitate up leaving him head down. He is left literally standing on his head. What is wrong with him????
 
Swim bladder and once they head stand they don't usually make it.
What are your water stats in ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and ph.
What do you feed the fish?
