Fish Crazy
Hi all!
I just got home from holidays, and my Emperor Tetra is swimming erratically. It has an unbalanced buoyancy and is struggling to swim upright. That is usually the sign of Swim Bladder Disease, but it's also bloated. I checked for pine coning and it doesn't have any scales sticking out. If it is Swim Bladder, I plan on putting it in a floating breeder box and feeding it green peas (so the other fish don't eat the peas first). Luckily he's still eating, and I just wanna get rid of it ASAP.
So my question is, can fish be bloated when having swim bladder disease?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Lazarus
