Hi,
I have a Banggai Cardinal that is not swimming well. The fish can stay upright, but when it goes to swim it's sideways or even goes upside down. I was treating the fish for prazi resistant flukes using hyposalinity. The fish was at 1.009 for a week, then I started to raise salinity back up. I brought it to 1.025 over the course of 12 days. The fish started having the swim issue a couple of days ago. During the hypo the fish seamed normal and was eating. The flukes damaged the fins, but those have been healing. While I was increasing salinity the water became a bit cloudy. I added carbon, then did a water change two days ago.
Any advise on what could be wrong?
Thank you
