TS, as per ur description on the PGS, most likely suffering from sbp or too much air trapped inside the stomach. U may call bro Dr ARK at 97127077 for help....Sentimental value for 6yrs is a long time, and try to find a cure for it asap....Wishes it a speedy recovery....

the fish got air trapped in the bladder.you will need to draw it out.leave it untreated will resulted to death.

better check your water parameters, Might be something wrong with your water that caused aro to keep on jumping, as for the Swim bladder think it might have injured itself while jumping, try to correct water parameters and put in heater .

human swallow water when struggling in water and fish swallow air.for this case,must important is to draw out the air as prolong will resulted to back and dorsal fin rot due to expose to air.also resulted to death due to suffocation.

try transfer to fgt or tub.
As tub or fgt side it cant see anything, may calm it down, no more jumping.
and tub low water level may helps...
