Baby lionhead |

I have 3 small baby lionheads. I have a black, calico and orange one. I think the orange one is a girl because it is a lot more rounded. I have recently noticed it sitting on the bottom of the tank behind the bridge a lot. He tends to do this at night. I was wondering if she is ill. The other fish are swiming around a lot. But she is just sitting quite still. I done all water tests, and all are fine.
thank you |

I have had the fish about 3 months now. I have only notice it about 3 days ago. He is fine in the day. could it be she is just resting? |

i would just watch carefully, and also give a bit less food, in case a possible bloat (a common goldfish problem).
what filtration do you have? |

Apologies in advance for this rather facetious remark but maybe it is having trouble with its sexuality
"He is fine in the day. could it be she is just resting?"
"could it be i am feeding him too much. She does look a bit fat" |
