HELP!!!!!!!!!

[fishyyy]

3 fish died in 3 days, so far, and now one is sick. It looks like hes getting weighed down by his tail and cant swim well.

I put him in a seperte bowl and the two healthy (i hope!!) ones are still in the tank. I took out about 75% of teh water and put about 25% of new water in.

The sick one looks likeit cant move its tail.
This is how the fish died:
1. The to part of his tail was almost gone.
2. When I got home, one was standing on her head between some plants. I tried to keep her alive, and sometimes she wiggled a little to move maybe 4 inches, but besides that, she never really moved.
3. I have no idea. He died on the first night.

This looks like there is a disease in the tank that attacks the fishes swimbladder. It could`ve been brought in with the last purchase u made from ure LFS. Go down to the swimbladder part in this link.

So whant should i do
Should i change all the water??
Should i tke out and clean all the gravel and things like that???
Should i take the healthy fish out of the tank???

I think the fish is kind of swimming a little better...

Oddly enough, one treatment that has had good results is feeding your fish a pea. That’s right, a single green pea (canned or cooked and lightly crushed) once daily often helps cure the problem.

Is this true??
Should I try it??
Can I use canned peas??

well, it did say canned or cooked. I think you should try out the pea treatment. I agree that your fish is suffering from swim bladder. I had a balloon molly who died from it. She only lasted about 18 hours. Hope you have better luck than I did. I'm sorry I don't have any helpful advice for you.

Unfortunaly, that fish died .
THe two fish that are left look ok, though.

for future reference..use frozen, not canned. canned are too salty.

guess what? upon observing my fish today, looks like my dalmation molly is starting to come down with swim bladder as well. I hope she pulls through. so sorry about you fishy.
