Default correct salt level for goldfish?

peas are not digestible. basically they give the fish diarrhea. it is a treatment
like a crystal of epsom salts in the peeled pea.
the CAUSE of swim bladder (mostly seen in fancy big bodied GF) is overfeeding. see

Hi, I am a newbie to all this so what i say might be sooo wrong. I
recently read about a man who had a goldfish with swim bladder
problems. Anyway, he fed the fish just frozen peas for a few days and
found that the fish recovered well and hadn't had the problem since.
He seemed convinced that this was the cure. I use frozen peas a few
times a week as I thought that it stopped the fish getting constipated.
Anyway, whether this was pure luck or not, might be worth giving a go
if all else is failing. Hope I haven't made lots of experienced people
cringe with my useless information.
