Fry acting like they have swim bladder disease! Sort of swimming around in circles upside down, is this natural selection at work? It has affectted about 6 out of 90 fry! I first noticed about 24 hrs ago and have only seen one dead. I may have over fed them yesterday as I've upt there meals to 4 penny sized doses as they are about an inch long!

Any breeders out there ever seen anything like this?
Tank levels are within acceptable parameters!
 
I dont know what is happening- nor have I dealt with that... but I would separate the spinners from the rest of the group in case it is contagious at all...
 
The largest of the fry are about an inch, there are only 4 this long. The rest. Randomly desrease to about 5 mm. The water quaulity is bang on as I'm doing weekly 30% and have a fluval 305 a sunsun600lph internal and a sunsun 9w UV 800lph internal. They are in a 55g roma 240 with there parents.

I'm guess natural selection on this one or over feeding, ill remove the spinners as advised that's if they haven't been eaten, ill do a WC again just to make sure!

Ill keep ya posted!!
