Is my pet fish sick?

Question

the fish isn't moving much, and it flipped its body upside down once, what should i do?

Answer 1

It's ether dead or sleeping all my fish did this and i have 15 fishes

Answer 2

my fish never moves and it is about 6 months old, so there is probably nothing wrong with it.

Answer 3

use a defibrillator and shock it back to life. but don't shock it to hard or you'll have nuggets.  

Answer 4

Mhm it's definitely sick when it turns its body upside down. I honestly don't know what to do...

p.s. don't ever put a crawfish and fish together in the same tank. that small thing eats fish bigger than its own size like there's no tomrorow..

Answer 5

I would love to know how anyone can come up with an honest anwser based on your info and say the fish is sick your info is so veague there is no way to say if it is sick

what size tank is it in I am betting it is in a bowl and that by itself can explaine what you fish is or isn't doing

what are the water conditions ammonia ,nitrite,and nitrate levels

Answer 6

he's gonna die....

Answer 7

Call local vets for free information and pray.

Answer 8

It's constipated.. feed it a tiny piece of the inside of a cooked pea and clean out it's tank (remove all the gravel to watch for bowel movement). That should help it go the bathroom and hopefully correct it's swimming difficulties haha.

This happened to my fish once and a few days after feeding it the pea it finally went to the bathroom.

Answer 9

idk

Answer 10

Put some food into the tank and see if it goes to get it.

I remember when i had fish they would always hurry to get the food.

If the fish doesn't move , I'm not to sure whats wrong with it then
