Neon Tetra - Odd Swimming Practice

[drango91]

you should only worrie if the fish looses color, in that case remove immediately! otherwise all others will die, im thinking your fish just likes the position, no fish is the same

if it was a full tummy pressing on the swimbladde then it could have been like that for a few days if it was constipated..... not sure if tetra's get it but i know some fish can.

so in summary maybe he just needed a big poo!!!! glad he's OK now tho






















and yes I am classy aren't I

All colour seems good at the moment but I'll keep a close eye on them. I think you're right though....I've probably just got an odd fish

Headstanding is often an indicator of poor water conditions.

I have a neon that does the same thing, only head up, cant offer any advice but he seems to be OK as he's been like this for months now, and he feeds and frolic fine with the other neons.
