I have a couple of fish that don't seem very happy. My family and I have never kept fish of any sort and I don't think we are doing a good job with these guys. My husband bought our 3 year old this tank from petsmart along with some fish. I am not sure what exactly they are but I have a goldfish with a red head, some fish with strips and a yellow snail.
We had them for about a month and two of the striped fish have already died much to my son's distress. We have went back to Petsmart and asked them for help and we bought Melafix and some salt from them. We haven't had any more fish die but they look very unwell. I have bought them a bamboo and a bushy plant hoping to cheer them up but they still seem very unhappy.
They don't really swim around very much, I think fish is suppose to swim around but all they do is just sit there.
I have went back to Petsmart and the fish keeper said the goldfish might be lonely but before I buy other one, I was wandering if anyone else had sad fish that doesn't really swim? How do I make them swim and make them happy?
