Bizare behavior?

KPerry1279 Dec 19, 2004 11:50 PM

Hello, I have 3 FBT I only got them a few weeks ago and one has acted weird since we got them. It swims in small circles over and over and over. It appears to have trouble with his right back leg.. I noticed today that he seems to be having a little trouble getting up on the land. Should I Isolate him? Is there something else I can do?

There are many possibilities to the cause of this behavior, it could be neurological, or an injury. It could be caused by a pathogen that you have to assume is contagious. You should separate it immediately and check your water quality as well.
