:-( I have 3 tigger barbs and i got them (about 5 days ago) and they were fine but now they are swimming with a tilt.

I don't know if is swimbladder desease or just them being stressed. they seem to feed like normal but i don't realy know.
 
I have tiger barbs and they quite often tread water looking downwards but they are ok. They do it at night too, but when another one bumps into them they straighten up!
 
i can relate to this, when i first got my barbs one of my tiger ones used to be by itself up a corner swimming sideways on a few occasions it also swam upside down -_- thought i was gonna lose the little bugger but after a couple of days it was fine now it swims with the other 7 like nothin never happened
