the water is fine i just changed it a couple days ago. the temp has been a lil cooler because of the weather. he is just laying on his side right now on the bottom.
swim bladder infection? something to do with the swim bladder probably. has it been eating recently?
he ate a lil bit, but its hard for him to get it. can salt do anything? what kind of meds should i get?
add salt and bump up the temp for good measure. also, maracyn 2 treats symptoms of swim bladder disease, if that is in fact what it is. generally swim bladder infections make your fish float, though.
if it seems severe, i would. but it's your call, depending on severity and its progression. you could always do salt and temp now, and if things don't get better or get worse, dose maracyn 2.
