Before you ask
All water parameters are spot on haha

15days in the tank and this little dude is still swimming like this. Could it be a bladder problem?

Thanks inadvance

Is there another fish ( my first though would be its mate ) being agressive towards it or is it the only fish in the system?

There no other fish in this tank atm. Only a small cuc and a scooter. Seems like they are friendly towards eachother. Should I put I'm in a breeding tank and see how he goes?

Honestly I would just keep him in the current tank to avoid any stress from moving the fish around too much.
A little garlic mixed with the food to help with any internal parasites.
Do you think it is a swim bladder issue or is it swimming normal but just sticking to the surface?

Is she in the same spot every morning? Is that when she does it? I know I almost had a heart attack first time I saw my clown sideways at the top of the tank but it turns out it was just sleeping. Now I try to see where her drunk butt fell asleep
