Over the past 5-6 days I've noticed algae growing on the tank glass. So today I bought a new filter and also cleaned the glass.
I also changed 10% of the water yesterday as that's when I noticed my fish was acting strangely. I usually change 10% of the water once a week.
My fish was darting across the tank and then twitching when it got to a corner, in extremely fast hyperactive movements, almost flipping over at times.
Since I changed the water the fish seems to be darting a lot less, but occasionally moves fast. But now I think I've noticed the top of her eyes are slightly bulging. She isn't acting her normal self.
I'm really hoping she doesn't get sick or die!!!!! by the way the other fish is only darting a little but looks fine.... Also they are both eating well, I feed them peas and pre-soaked fish food daily.
If anyone could give me advice I would really appreciate it as I dont' know what to do.
How often should I change the water at this time and how much??? should I do anything else?
Thank you
