Fish Has Trouble Swimming Up & Gets Tired

[chickennuggets123]

I have a female balloon molly.

Problem-
It has real difficulty swimming to the top of the tank. It look like its taking a lot of effort.

And it then slowly goes to the bottom, and sits on the gravel, almost as if it's tired out and catching it's breath.

I've read about buoyancy and stuff...
So I put her in a breeding trap, so its not as deep as the full tank.
I've also heard about a pea method (by feed them the inside of peas once a day), and people said after a few weeks, the fish recovers completely.

Does the pea method work?
What's Exactly wrong with her?


Thanks

As much info to help please!

What is your ammonia, nitrite,nitrate and ph levels

How long has the tank been running, how was it cycled and have you tested the water (that's what 'water parameters' means; ammonia, nitrite, ph, all those).

What sort of breeding trap is it? The fish would probably be better off in he main tank than stuck in one of those 'things' (I'm not a fan of breeding traps, as you can tell!).

If you can't test the water, do a 50% water change every day for two or three days, and don't feed and see how things look then.
