Diamond tetra
 

I've had a diamond tetra swimming round erratically for about a week, it
looks like it can't stay up right, and goes all over the place, upside down
etc, yet when I go to try and get him out he belts off at high speed like
nothing is wrong. Also he seems to be feeding ok, well, as well as you can
eating upside down. Swim bladder infection?

Cheers

Might be time to recycle it. Are there other fish in there too?

Sounds like bladder. Most of my fish with swim bladder infection
died. I have one white cloud that over came the floatation problem
and has lived a year, I keep rooting for it, quite a survivor.
