Sorry for the late reply. Went to sleep a little early.

And no problem I couldn't figure out how to make a post until late last night lol

Yea. Gotta wedge something against it. Push some plants on top so the fish get between leaves and stems but right side up. This way if the swim bladder heals then it’ll be safe.

Could be just the trapped air. Would add some Epsolm salt 1 tbsp per 5 gallon.
