i'm not an expert by any means, and i've never had that particular problem, but all my fish swam in place until i changed the x, y and z parameters to match the numbers for the fishtank itself. i have no idea how that works, but it seemed to do the trick. hope that helps!

that script is intended to be used without a fishtank. i found that it worked well with the little sea fishies but it didn't work at all with the freshwater fish.

right click on the fishtank and then click properties. write down what the x, y and z numbers are. then right click on the fish and click on properties. override whatever is in the x,y and z boxes with the numbers you wrote down. it'll look odd at first, but it works. feel free to pm me in world if you'd like.
