Is there any hope for this poor fella?



I know fantails can suffer with swim bladder issues but I swear he doesn’t have one. Tried swim bladder treatments no end of times nothing works he has been like this for 6 months he just won’t die. Swims, eats but rests upside down.

Any ideas?

I have tried frozen peas before will try them again. It’s a 50l biorb they don’t come much bigger. He’s not that big it’s an optical illusion he used to have a mate in there with him. Thanks though he will be having peas for tea.

I fixed him! Put him on a diet of peas and he’s right as rain no floating on the top but if I go back to normal fish food even very small amounts he’s back to floating on the top. Do peas it is.
