swimming at a 45 degree angle ,head tilted down.

I have 5 discus in a 75. I have had them for 2 years without any problems.
They are 5-3/4 to 6-1/2 ". Fed them this am and as usual they attacked the
the fdbws. I fed the usual 2 cubes which I break up into pcs.
About an hour latter went down to the fish room and one is swimming as the
title says. It's been 9 hours and no change.
Any thoughts. I'm thinking it may have swallowed a pc. too big for it.
Any info would be appreciated.
Thanks
Jay

Hi Brady,

do you feed your fish any other than fdbw ?
and also it is a good idea to soak your fdbw cube for a minute or two prior feeding so it can absorb some water to prevent bloating in fish.
please fill out the questionnaire as Jeep suggests and pictures of the fish help a lot too.

cheers,

Edy

No need to fill out that form. Been raising discus for 15 years and have never had a problem
and never have used medication of any kind.
I just asked a simple question and stating the condition of fish and what it was doing.
That's all. Anybody have an idea?

If you want us to be able to get to the root of the problem you need to fill out the form. We need more information.

Hi Jay, filling out the questionnaire is a great way for folks to help figure out what is going on with your fish. You might try some epsom's salt in case there is a blockage.
