xStatic 93 Posted April 4, 2017 I've had my fish on a stable diet of Repashy soilent green gel + Saki Hikari pellets for the last 1+ years but suddenly my biggest fish Suna has been having some floaty issues every time he eats Saki Hikari. My typical routine is a small amount of Repashy in the morning, a pinch of Saki Hikari mid-day and then another small amount of Repashy in the evening. His floatation issues are pretty mild but he'll flip on his side/upside down while swimming sometimes and when he stops actively swimming he slowly makes his way back to the surface. Should I just stop feeding the tank the Saki Hikari pellets completely? I could try to isolate him during dry pellet feeding time so he only gets the gel food morning and evening. Once he gets his second helping of Repashy in the evening the floatyness usually goes away and it isn't until he gets dry pellets again the next day that the symptoms return. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chaory 21 Posted April 5, 2017 Could be the high protein. I had two fish that had floating issues. I believe it to be genitics, but I do notice that over feeding or feeding high protein will trigger it more.I would feed foods in lower proteins, like Omega One, and feed him less frequently.
