you say your water parameters are good but we need actual numbers so we can see whether they are good or not, i havent read your other thread but have you tried clout or anything, usually swim bladder issues are hard to cure though
yea if its swim bladder then she is doomed....only thing ive heard of is the frozen peas....but that is about it.
i dont know how she got it thats the thing, i did water change the night before came home from work and turned light on and thats when i seen her laying upside down kinda wondering if make had anything to do with it he kinda beating her up to breed. but prob not, and shes kinda fat to so i was thinking eggs or swim bladder, my water is ammonia 0 and nitrite is 0
but what are your nitrates? and that sucks though sorry, it always sucks when a nice fish suddenly gets sick on you
Can you put her in her own tank? And do water change dayily and force feed her peas with love and luck she should get better hope she stay alive on you good luck tho
