really time wasting
because when the fish is swimming it hass to use its bladder to swim away
Sometimes, if they are lucky, yes. Usually, fish catch swim bladder disease if they swallow too much air however this is very rare and happens more often on some types of fish. Very often, the answer is no.
A swim bladder is found on the side of the fish.
Yes almost all fish have swim bladders it helps them go up and down. Gold fish can get flip over disease involving the swim bladder
Well depending on the cause in some cases it may be yes, in others no. For swim bladder diseases brought on by bacterial infections the answer is usually no- unless treated with the right antibiotic. In the case of a deformed swim bladder the fish can usually live with that. For a fish suffering from cystic kidneys or an egg impaction the answer is usually no.
Yes, unfortunately. My Red Platy is currently afflicted with Swim Bladder Disease. He is swimming erratically, and his buoyancy is off balance. I have quarantined him, raised the water temperature, added salt, even tried feeding him peas, now just hoping for the best.
Your guppy might be suffering from swim bladder disease. If you have any more guppies i would keep an eye on them.
swim bladder is what helps the fish stay afloat without the swim bladder a fish would simply sink duhhh
it might be dead but if its moving tht means its alive and it has swim bladder disease
To the best of my knowledge there is no reliable/proveable cure for swim bladder problems. I am aware that there are (quite expensive) medications available at pet shops that claim to cure just about everything including swim bladder problems but I have yet to hear of one actually working and curing this problem. I have spent a fortune in pet shops over the years and have learned that there is no reliable water additive or medical cure for swim bladder problems. My advice is to euthanise the fish.
they have an organ called a swim bladder. It is filled with gas and it keeps them afloat.
