[teakwandolover234]

so I get home and my brand new flame is upside down. and I was like oh that sucks then he started doing these little spurts of energy flinging himself around the tank I panicked and now he is in a quarantine jug. (I don't have another tank). is he in pain? will he die? helloooooopppppppp

the tank was perfect for him. but he was under a lot of stress... did I do something wrong??

he could only swim upside down and would lay at the bottom

I don't know the exact reading I get them checked by the fish store. I don't have my own kit. I am in school so its a bit expensive.I am asking for money for my birthday though.
