| The fish in question has been at the top of the tank a lot for the past 2 days. The fish is not dead, because when i put food in the tank it swims to the food and eats so I'm thinking maybe it's sick. |

| Yes, most of the time when they swim near the top of the tank it means they are oxygen deprived. You should test your water for ammonia poisoning and possibly nitrites as well. I'd do a 30% water change also. |

| Can he stay afloat or does he get carried along by the air pump? If he can't stay afloat he may have an infection in his swim bladder. If not, test your water. Kits start from around 6.99 |
