Ugghh

My surinam geo is swimming funny. He really struggles to stay floating in the water, he kind of flutters, then when he stops, he sinks Anyone have an idea of exactly what's wrong, or, better yet, how to cure it? I couldn't stand losing him. He was 2nd favorite after mo, and now my overall favorite Any help is good (just checked water, everything is at good levels, all other fish are OK)

Also, my remaining mogurnda has stopped eating Could it be from camallanus nematodes? If it is then he should get better (levamisole in every tank) but I don't know what else it might be He has been getting bullied a bit, could that be the problem? August and september were unlucky fish months for me Any ideas on that lump? My other mogurnda din't have that...

It could be constipation, try feeding it a pea.

 

[Dwarfs]

OK, I'll try when we get some peas, anyone know about the swim bladder

 

[The-Wolf]

The pea treatment will also work for swim bladder problems

 

[Dwarfs]

Oh, I hope the geo will eat a pea

If you feed the peas that is 'cooked' I believe, I have used frozen (defrosted of course, but they are already cooked). Make sure you take off the outer skin and for my fish I cut them up a bit cos they seem more interested when they are in small bits

Good Luck
