Royal Is Weird

[FBTgirl]

Today he started swimming REALLY fast around is tank. Then he turned on his side and started swimming just as fast. He's a funny little fish. I wish I got a video because after that he saw his reflection an started attacking the glass. Weird little fish.

Hun thats not a good thing, swimming really fast on the side could be a sign that something is wrong, and "spazzy" behavior could be caused by poor water quality or even an internal infection of some sort.

He just had a spazzy moment. He is fine now. I think he is O.K. and I am pretty sure the water is fine.

Perhaps you should test it to make sure? Irratic movements can also be a sign of parasites

 

[FBTgirl]

I will see what I can do about testing him but only if these movements come around again.

You should be testing the water regularly really, ive got a bit slack at it, but really you should be checking especially if no filter, sorry I dont know if you have one or not?!
