I have 3 baby silver Arowana's which I keep in a large tub (don't be mad already has plans for a big pond) for now that tub is big for them. Like all of you I walk up to the tank and look at them frequently, today I looked at them just after I woke up, everyone was doing fine. After 2 hours I went for another look and noticed that one of them was acting weird and was having difficulties in swimming, not being able to balance, and is not scared to see me getting close while others go and hide. Looks like a swim bladder issue, after seeing some youtube vids I moved him to a small tub with little water just above his body, added rock salt and aeration.
Am I doing it right? Is there any chance for recovery?
Is there anything else I should do? I can't buy any kind of medication because of covid lockdown in my state! ( All pet stores are closed)
Here is a video I took after moving him.
