tel Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 my purple tang, who is battling w/s at the mo, has developed a strong tendency to lie over on his side. this only happens when hes slow or stopped and he will tip over to his left (always the same side) no noticeable swelling or other obvious things i can see. this afternoon his w/s seems a bit better and hes eating really well.........any hints or experience appreciated thanks...

cookie extreme Posted May 4, 2006 Report Share Posted May 4, 2006 when did you buy him? i got a foxface 10 days ago, it ate algae for a little bit and had great colour (not neccessarly a good thing in a new fish). it retreaded more and more, was lying on its side more often in the last couple of days and died today after i went to work. so i assume cyanide poisoning as his colour looked good for most of the time. i would rule a disease out as this is the first new fish in over a year, none of my other fish have ever been sick and the foxface was only for a very short time at the LFS. and there wasn't really enough time to develop an illness. really pisses me of because i choose the best coloured out of three. without blaming anyone i would be interested how the other two went that were at hollywood at the shore. if you bought them how are they going?
