Glofish acting like crazy

[Tatiana]

my glofish tetra has been acting weird in the past few days (swimming upside down, in circles, being hyperactive, eating food upside down, spinning, tumbling against the plants). I have 4 Glofish in a 20 gallon tank I recently upgraded a month ago. I have had these same fish for the past 2 years with no issues at all until now

 water measures levels all parameters are normal except for the PH little low for the species recommendation and all the other 3 fish are normal . all of them are eating well (including the weird one)

 

please advice . your help is greatly appreciated

It sound like a swim bladder issue what I would do is Epsom salt baths 1 table spoon for 2 gallons for no more than 15 minutes twice a day for for 5 days as Epsom salt acts as a muscle relaxants to relieve pressure on the swim bladder if you see no improvement after that then I would treat with kanaplex in food feed a small amount twice a day for 7 days

can I do the baths in the same. water with epsom salt diluted? or do I have to replace and make the solution every bath?

I use a bucket remake To make the  solutions and replace it  each time so it's temperature match so it's no going to shock the fish
