School of fish no direction

Hi guys
Have an animated fish model i want to run round a motion path. Have used particles to make a school of fish using instancing. Only problem is the fish wont swim forwards.

I have looked though some forums and cant find the answer, Have changed the aim direction to velocity and even changed front axis but nothing seems to help.

What am i missing, im sure its a simple setting but cant figure it out.

Please help.user added image

When you first connect to the motion path are they facing the correct way to the path...........dave

Um no but I changed the front facing axis for the motion path to the correct one. X and it didnt fix anything.

I set the aim position to velocity this was great as they were swimming in the same direction to the motion path but backwards, this stumped me for a while what I had to do was select the original mesh then 1.reset transformation 2, rotate the mesh 180 3 freeze transformation, I think I delete history at the start that would be 1-1 LOL...............dave
