Such symptoms don't come suddenly. You should not have bought it.

Hi All,

This is my first post..

I've got a black ranchu with a sinking problem. It sinks to the bottom and lies sideway. It has been at least 2 months already. I've isolated it much earlier when it happened.

What should I do??? I've read that it could be swim bladder problem. I must say that it has been very strong. It is still feeding though. but lately, much lesser than before.

Please help...

green peas are not a cure. They are a prevention method. Its the kind of peas which you will find in Chinese Fried Rice. You can easily get a frozen pack from any supermarket and it is inexpensive.

There are pre cooked and uncook green pea in the market. Uncook green pea has to be boiled in hot water to soften it. Before feeding pea, please remove the hask.
