MissFree 40 Posted April 20, 2014 Blue, my oranda has me stressed. I don't think I've read so much and boy do I love to read. I'll fill out my form as soon as get some good lighting to run my tests again, although parameters were fine yesterday. What concerns me is he will float at the top for minutes at a time and won't move until I come near the tank. When he's ready he even swims sideways. If that isn't bad enough he does this thing when foraging that drives me bonkers; a headstand. He used to be pretty active and he is when I come around but I hate to see him in one position for too long. He usually eats a mixture of hikari lionhead and pro gold and he loves spinach. I'm really clueless as what to do next other than put him in quarantine timeout. Since I've been on this forum I haven't lost a fish. A first for me. I really don't want to lose him. He's my baby 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoldenSpoiledRotten 6,786 Posted April 20, 2014 I have the link to the Diagnosis form in my signature. If you could fill it out it would be great. If you are able, please get a video of this behavior. Hang in there. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
