jay_g_hunter Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Hi Guys Just today i added 4 more fish to my 4ft-240ltr tank, bringing the total to 18 cichlids (none bigger than 6cm), my yellowtail acei was the tank boss thus far, but now he seems to have gone a bit mental! He's swum over to the far right side of the tank and just continually swims vertically up-and-down the corner, with occasional figure-8 movements against the side glass, in a fairly rapid and stressed fashion. Whats wrong with him? Its becoming a worry, any feedback would be greatly appreciated! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers I had one about 12 cms and it swam around with heaps of stress having usual spastic attacks about 2 weeks later it spazzed out so bad it knocked a rock down and it fell on him and it died Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
