Bloated, listless Platy One of my platys is hanging out at the bottom & pretty still. His fins seem to be ok & he is not pregnant. He also appears a bit bloated and his breathing seems labored. He's upright and is not leaning to the side. The water parameters are normal (0 ni, 10 na, 0 am). The tank is a 30G breeder. Any ideas? Maybe constipation? Btw, I'm out of aquarium salt. His brother keeps hanging around him. It's depressing me :-( Here are some pics... sorry for the quality: He is on the right: http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...9/IMGP3259.jpg Sort of hard to see his bloat: http://i1097.photobucket.com/albums/...IMGP3257-1.jpg |
I would recommend adding aquarium salt, and raise the temperature. Also try and feeding it some peas as those help with constipation. |
Thanks for the input. He died later that night. Guess I'll never know why. :( |
