Question

i just got to damsels fish one of them is at the bottom of the tank and the other one is swimming around eating . he has not moved but still is a live . any ideas why and how i can get him healthy or moving

Answer 1

He may be constipated or have a swim bladder problem.

Constipation can usually be treated by giving the fish a defrosted pea popped out of its shell or by introducing a frozen food or a live plant.

Swim bladder can be treated with a swim bladder treatment.

Answer 2

he might be sleeping

Answer 3

He is just in a deep sleep dear. :)

Answer 4

He's probably just stressed about moving. Give him a few days. If its more then a few days it might be swim bladder. Or nts. (New Tank Syndrome)  

Answer 5

Some fish dont' handle the stress of being moved from the pet-store to thier new home very well, wait a couple of days, he probably is in shock and is resting. He should be better soon.
