Posted Neon tetra fish

I have small neon tetra fish. the fish is not swimming properly,having problem in maintaining the balance and swimming sideway(flip down).I think it has flipover disease. I changed the water and everything is o.k becuase other fishes in the tank are normal. I tried given variety of food but fish is not eating.I am scared about my fish.Please advice what should I do?

Neons are not that easy to keep anymore because of the way they are bred in a chemical mix of god knows what ,if he looks to bad you might have to nut him off but give it a few days the same goes for guppies 7months and they have nearly had it.

Eds right I had neons and they all died within a day, all other fish in my tank where fine.

I think its the PH levels that knocks them off, very picky fish.

There used to be a lfs near me and the owner always put terrapins in with neons and cardinals. He swore blind that both tetras always fared much better with the terrapins in their tank and that they looked good because of the mucus and waste off the terrapins with hardly any losses.
