Hey guys just got a small shipment of silvers.

They are ok but i have found 1-2 swimming down (tail above head) but not moving if you know what i mean. I have seen some slightly leaning to one side also.

I have salted yesterday to 1-2pp and have added more salt to bring it to about 3pp.

Anyone know what this could mean? Any chance that they are just stressed from the trip and will take them a few days to settle?
