Yeah, I'm sorry. It's going to be another floating related thread and I usually know how to handle with it.
Goldilocks (my adult female golden albino) has always been pretty round.
(Sorry for the HUGE and blurry picture, made with my cell phone)
I always thought she looked graved, maybe she is, I don't know. But I noticed her floating a lot in the last 2 weeks. The Amount of Floatiness varies each day. Right now she's floaty again. Burping up air bubbles all the time, sinking to the bottom. And I'm sure she's floating again in a few hours.
Edit: Oh and when she floats to the surface, she also gulps for air sometimes. Ending up floating even more.
When I got home 2 days ago her belly was huge. I thought "oh no, she's bloated". But her legs aren't really swollen. There was a huge air bubble coming out of her mouth and she was normal again.
But I don't know why it's happening constantly lately. She's eating enough, the other axies are fine (as long as a plant eating Xotl is referred as 'fine').
What can it be? Water parameters are normal (for a pretty long time, that's good I guess), she's eating and the temp. is fine (it's pretty cold over here).
