I've had her for about 4 months.
It started when she kept floating on top of the water, this was about 2 an a half weeks ago. I sorted it out, took it as a case of swim bladder i was just wondering if this could be linked to her other problems now. About 2 weeks ago she started losing the colour in her gills. In the past week though, her gills have shrunk, they are tiny; you can hardly see them anymore it looks like they have gone.
She has completely gone off all her food, and is hardly moving. She seems really nervous and shy. This morning when i looked at her, she was acting strange and kept opening and closing her mouth, it looked like she was trying to be sicl
About a week ago she decedied to eat a butterfly plec, could this be something ese thats wrong with her?
I dont think she's stressed either,I've looked and she has none of the signs of stress. Can anyone tell me whats wrong and how to help her? The tank and water quality seem fine as they have never bothered her before and surely if it was this it would have happened sooner?
Thanks
