So I added 3 new silver dollars to my tank about 20 min ago. I set them in the water for about 30 min and I know they are healthly because I personally took care of them at work for the last 5 months. My tank water is 0 ppm amonia 0 nitrite 10 nitrate. The other 3 silver dollars I have (2 I just put in one I've already had) are fine. However the one in question is lying on his side like he is on his last limb. He was fine in the bag and in the tank at work. I was curious if this was because of the shock from moving tanks, or is maybe he hurt himself once he got into my tank? Any ideas?
 
Did you keep adding tank water to the bag.
Did anybody hurt him while catching him.
Sadly stress can take it's toll on fish.
 
Yeah it was just stress, and I was the one who bagged him so I made sure to be delicate as possible. He's fine now and swimming with the others. Thanks for you help :)
 
That's good news then.
Good Luck.
