swim bladder symptom

I was just sitting by my tank and noticed one of my panda cories seemed to be slowly floating towards the top of the tank. Watched him for a bit and while he could get to the bottom, he would start listing slowly to one side once he got there. I decided to catch him out, while I was watching I...

Hi all, I’ve recently stocked my aquarium with a dozen(12) rummy nose tetras in a community planted tank. This is the first time I’m keeping them and did all the research and hours upon hours of youtube videos to understand how to take care of them. It has been about 30 hours since I got them...

My king betta, oneday, is about 2.5-3 inches long. About a week ago (i know i procrastinated this) I noticed he was floating to the top. buoyancy was a slight problem. i fasted him and it seemed to get slightly better. Now? It seems like he’s not getting better. He may be getting worse. I...

Hello folks, I'm currently having a little trouble with one of my corys, decided to make a post seeking some advice about it. The issue is a buoyancy issue, I suspect he might have a swim bladder issue but I've never had a fish with swim bladder issues before so I'm not sure. When I looked up...

Hey everyone, I've had 6 corys for a long time in a 20 gal long and suddenly one of them started swimming upside down and close to the surface. When he wasn't, he would either just sit in one spot or swim around the middle/top areas of the tank. This isn't normal for him. He also has some torn...
