Question
I have a few problems and all of the fish stores I go to tell me different solutions. 1st of all they were sick and I gave them medication and that is when it all started. Now they are lethargic and sometimes freak out and swim sideways. They rarely eat now as well. What should I do?

Answer
Hi Rob,
 Have you been doing regular partial water changes?  I would start by changing 25% of the water today and then doing the same thing for about 3 days running.  That should perk them up.
