Hello, this afternoon as I was feeding my fish I noticed that one of my black clowns weren’t coming out to eat as this one always does. He always gets bullied and bit so I just thought he was hiding for a moment. But then 5 minutes went by he still wasn’t out and his buddy always kept swimming...

I have a four-ish year old clownfish in a Fluval Evo 13.5 that started spinning late Friday and has not stopped since. I'm not sure if he is having a swim bladder issue or perhaps something neurological? He has been careening around the tank like an out of control rocket, spinning constantly...
