    Okay so my angelfish doesn't swim right. All of a sudden the last few days it
    can only swim up and it floats back down. It doesn't swim like a normal fish.
    I don't know if it has something so please help me!!

    are there any red marks on the tail or fins, erratic swimming, heavy breathing could be a bacterial infection?

    Unfortunatly, I don't think there is much that you can do for your Angel. Maybe remove the fish and try to quarantine it with medication, depending on one or more viruses or bacterial pathogens.

    I would put it in QT if I were you, so it doesnt infect the other fish if it does have something. Is your water prams ok??
