Hey!
Iāve been keeping fancy goldfish for years, but Iāve thankfully and surprisingly never had any trouble with swim bladder in any of my goldies.
But today I noticed my 3 year old 5ā fantail was lying on her side floating at the top. I figure itās swim bladder and I know thereās no real cure or anything, but is there anything I can do to help her? I tried feeding her and she refused it, sheās very lethargic and not moving. She can swim for a short distance but then stops and floats again. I feed sinking pellets so I donāt know if itās because of gulping air at the surface. Is there any way I can help her even if I canāt treat it? Thanks in advance
