I have 5 danios in a ten gallon tank with two ADFs. Lately the fish have been just hanging at the top of the tank with their tail ends sinking a bit. They will wiggle back up then start to sink again. None of them are bloated, gasping or otherwise illl-looking. Sometimes they will dart around and chase each other but mostly they just hang there. I have four live plants in the tank and my filter seems to put quite a bit of air into the tank as well. I tried feeding them some blanched pea - reading that it could be a sign of disease, but none of them would eat it. I have fasted them for 24 hr but they were eating normally before.
Stats:
Ammonia - 0.25. Doing 20% water change daily. Tank is still going through initial cycling. Been established for three weeks (two without fish and one with)
Nitrites - 0
Nitrates - 0
Ph - 7.5
Gh - 150
Temp - 75
Frogs are acting normal (thanks to everyone who helped me with that on my other post!)
I keep the tank as clean as possible. Using a vacuum for water changes and even feeding frogs in a temporary enclosure. Plants seem healthy - no dead leaves.
Any idea what this could be and how to help them feel better? Could it be the gh? Our water is very hard. Yes I am using a conditioner and taking readings with the API master test kit.
