I got 4 zebra danios and 2 cardinal tetras about 1.5 months ago to add to my 29 gallon planted tank.
I just added all zebra danios and 1 healthy cardinal tetra in very recently, but have kept the other tetra in a quarantine tank because it seems to have an illness.
- erratic swimming, uneven
- swimming at a 45 degree angle head up
- I noticed it’s tail is drooping down a little as well
- eating, but not very Interested in food
- has not grown very much at all in 1 month
all the other fish seem healthy, so I added them to my main tank after separating the unhealthy tetra into a small1 gallon tank.
I assumed it was parasites so I treated the 1 gal with general cure, and after the treatment, it got a little better. However, now it has returned to swimming at an angle. No cysts or discolorations so I’m not exactly sure if it neon tetra disease.
thanks for the help!
