ok so i lost a platy today. she stopped eating 3 days ago and now has passed on. all of a sudden one of my older guppy females is swimming fine but when she stops swimming her tail floats above like its filled with air! what is going on here? is she just old? is she suffering from something??? she gave birth to about 13 babies a week ago so i dont think she is experiencing stress. ive done daily water changes. i dont have the money to get aquarium salt(until next wk anyway). would table salt hurt them? i dont want to hurt my fish. please help!!!
 
try feeding her a cooked deshelled chopped up pea. she might have slight bloating that is casueing swimbladder issues. if that's the case, the pea will help clean her out and get rid of the bloat.
cheers!
 
Try some cooked frozen peas. Remove the shell.

How many gallons is the tank.
How many fish and which type.
Water stats in ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and ph.

What does it look like when the fish go to the toilet.
What do you feed the fish.
Do any fish look skinny or bloated.
