You won't believe this but I have a fancy-finned goldfish that will
display swim bladder symptoms if I feed him anything but frozen veggies (thawed, of course). When he first showed symptoms I did a web search and found out about the frozen pea trick - you feed the fish a thawed, well cut up frozen pea(discard the pea's outer shell first). Then you can also fast a day or two. The pea worked. Problem is - whenever I gave the fish regular food or thawed bloodworms or brine he would stay at the top or bottom and show signs of bladder imbalance. As long as I keep him on veggies he is fine and swims happily. Can you believe? SuziCreamCheese - and PS, water quality is not an issue with me. I maintain many tanks and have years of experience! |
