little girl just lies on the bottom help

[red-devil0602]

my new little girl sama just lies on the bottom and doesn't swim and very rarely comes up for air, will this just be her settling in or something worse

Can you post water stats so we can see what's going on in ammonia,nitrite,nitrate,and ph,are fins ok, any swelling on the fish tummy.

 

[red-devil0602]

the stats are fine and all the other females are fine, no signs of illness at all apart from sitting on the bottom

Just let it get used to the new surroundings. Just as long as she starts moving after a couple of days.

Does she eat?

 

[WILDER]

Probably just stress due to the new home, just give her abit of time to settle in, good luck.

She probably just needs to settle in, just keep her nice and quiet.

My new plakat took a few days to come round as he was doing the same thing. Just added some salt and indian almond leaf to his water and now he's fine and dandy and eating.

Let us know how she gets on

Yep!
I agree with all that's been said here.

She's probably just not used to her new home.
