Hi all.
We have a bright orange Platy that seems to just be sitting and doing nothing, it is constantly opening and closing it's mouth too.
She never used to be like this, she used to be lively and swimming around all the time.


She does seem to be eating though, as when we put food in she will see some dropping and go get it then she just goes back to doing nothing. Yesterday she was always at the top of the tank but today she always been down near the gravel. She doesn't look pregnant at all so don't think it's anything like that.

Does anyone have any suggestions on why she might be doing this? Hope it's nothing major!

Oh she is the only fish doing this too, the rest seem fine but she has been like this for two to three days now.

Thanks,
Anthony & Amy
