This works, I saved 2 fancy goldfish w/ swim bladder disease this way. I used Melafix and stopped feeding the pellets & flakes. Instead I feed freeze dried foods (brine shrimp, daphnia, worms.) and cooked peas, greenbeans, orange, etc. They can be allergic to fillers and wheat in flakes, it gives them gas & upset digestion & leads to SBD. But there are lots of natural food recipe ideas for goldfish on web. Also gel foods you can try instead of flakes. Don’t give up until you try this.

Nice flowerhorns in the background. Lol. Anyways, every time I use Melafix, it kills my small-scaled or no scaled fish. It cured my bigger fish and cichlids, but killed off my catfishes. I don’t know why it does that.

I have a feeder guppies, and I noticed one of them swimming oddly. It almost swims in a circle sometimes like it lost a fin, but occasionally it can go in a straight line for a few centimeters. I had just added more water to the tank, and I think I poured it in too fast. Could the fish have a swim bladder disease or was it simply damaged by the torrent of incoming water? (I hope not the second, because it seems less treatable) Can I treat feeder guppies for either? Thanks!
