Another issue with swim bladder (maybe hope)

[Stefan3289]

So I noticed I didn’t see my PB parrot convict out, and when I finally found him, he was trying to swim at the bottom of the tank, but was upside down. I took him out and put him into a quarantine tank I had running and I put him in a breeders net to minimize moving. I tried to give him peas, but he wouldn’t eat. I did a Espon salt treatment, and as of now he seems better. He is sitting on the bottom of the breeder next in the quarantine tank, slowly swimming around, but he is not on his back anymore. Should I maybe try to perform another Espon salt bath? What else could I do?

You could do one more bath but they only seem to work temporarily. Its probably not worth it to keep doing it time after time. Don't feed the fish for a couple of days then try the pea again.

Update: He has eaten a few pieces of the pea and is starting to swim around
Is it possible that he will now be ok? I will keep away from the dry foods for a while and will feed him peas and probably will go buy blood shrimp.
