Okay. SO! I just got two clown fish probably a month ago and I thought i was doing a good job..until yesterday i get home and see my Male clown fish laying on his side on the bottom of the tank...he just lays there breathing...He swims normal and still swims to the top when i feed them but then goes back to the bottom. What is wrong with him? I got them when they where babies so i know he's not very old...all my levels are good..i just did a water change and checked them again.
So! is there anything I can do to help this poor guy? and Should I do another water change?
