Hi,

My softshell is acting strange. When I feed him (waxworms) he usually swims right to them and grabs them. Now when I put a waxworm in he attempts to get it but swims in circles. I checked his eyes to see if they were red or swollen but they're fine. Does anyone know why he swims around in circles and keeps missing his food?
