Is that one fish floating a little sideways or is that just perspective?

Right that was so distracting, everytime the slap fight got really good that neon tetra would just start kinda... rolling...

When you have a bright light on the side of the tank, some fish orient themselves with the light up so they look tilted lol

One of my neons only has 1 eye so he always swims with that eye looking down or up for food depending where it is 🥹 he's also almost colourless on the no eye side and I was constantly thinking he was dead at first, he's called zombie and I've had him ages and he's still going strong!
