Hi everyone!
 
My beloved yellow tailed female guppy is showing signs of swim bladder disease, as she is having trouble staying stable and can only swim in circles. The other fish, particuarly the male guppy is constantly harassing her, which i am sure isnt good for her at the moment. unfortunately i dont have a hospital tank or anything, only a few containers. Im not sure whether i should put her in one of those however as i dont have an air pump. Please help me as i dont want my little guppy to die!
 
Thanks guys :)
 
For swim bladder disease, I've always been told to feed them peas. Buy some frozen peas, thaw them out, and squish them down. Then fast the poor little one for a couple days. Obviously, for this, you will want to seclude them off in a hospital tank so they can be treated seperately from the rest of the tank.
