I have a big tank with 10+ fish. I have mostly goldfish in there and 3 Koi fish.
About 3 days ago, their usual foods ran out, so we had to feed them a different brand (pellet).
I haven't washed my fishtank in months now and I see the the build up of something green looking, like dunk and other craps.
I then notice this morning that one of my fishtank lighting had fell into the tank (damn cat). It was plugged into the wall, but I don't think it was turned on but I think that might not be the cause.
I then started to notice one of my biggest koi fish (1 feet in lenght) started floating upside-down and couldn't swim well.
It was if he was trying to get out of the water but was weak. I immediately changed the water and put the sick-looking koi in a separate tank (a HDPE Plastic Bottle and it's big too so it held him with little room to move).
He now stopped floating upside-down, but still look weary and doesn't move much.
$5-10 reward for the solution! I don't want him to die!
