Roy....Is hard to figure out what a sick fish has. Rob may be able to help you with that. How is your water quality? How often do you do water changes? On my...
Hey Roy, Does he look like his scales are pine-coning? I would stop feeding him for at least 48 hours he may be constipated. Have you noticed any waste in...
