Hello, recently one of my fish (a silver tetra with red tips) began showing clamped fins and it has progressed to boyancy issues. He lays on the tank floor and when he does swim it's sideways or almost upside down. I am concerned because now I have a fancy fan tail guppy and a long fin zebra daino exhibiting the clamped fins behavior and lethargic laying on the tank floor. I have tried fasting the fish, done 50% water changes and daily water testing. There are only about 15 small fish (biggest being the guppies) in a 55 gallon tank that has been set up for over a year. I last introduced new fish (the zebra danios) 2+ months ago after quarantine of 1 month in a separate tank. Is there something I'm doing wrong? Are these common symptoms of an illness that I'm not finding anywhere? Any advice is appreciated.
