This fish has been attacked by some of the other fish. So i put a piece of plexiglass between them, and put melifex in there for her wounds. This was a week ago. She has been upside down for the passed two days. I stopped feeding her for about two days. Then i went to feeding her peas 3x a day. About 2peas worth each time. What else should i do?

water change schedule and water perams before water change? any time a fish hurt first thing you do is change the water then dose with pimafix and melafix. they will not cure but will potect, like neosporin on a cut.

Well i did a 30% w/c and i plan on doing 10% every day till it gets better. But what boggles me is that the fish has been kindof floaty and swiming upside down since ive got her. It drives me crazy!!

How large is the tank and what's the filtration? That's a very long time between water changes for a goldfish tank. I wouldn't be surprised if you were having problems with your parameters.

The wounds are pritty much healed up but shes floating like a bobber. I'll do a salt treatment and see if she goes down or not.
