Help! Balzanii male swimming/floating upside down

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
epsom salt and green peas along with keeping the water conditions consistent. Makle sure the water doesn't have too much current to struggle against. Swim bladder problems are most often caused by an erratic change in water conditions.
 
YEs, I put frozen peas in a coffee cup with a little water and throw them in the microwave untill it boils for a second. Then I drain the water and let them cool for a sec before I squeeze the "meat" out into the aquarium.
 
I dont believe it was swim bladder issues. I had a firemouth go out like this several months back, he was in this condition for 4-5 days then breathing slowed down and he died. I never got an answer to the issue, and I dont really know why he got like that.
 
aww that sucks. i had a fish have something wrong with him and i had no clue why and then he died.
