So, this is basically a thread in which you ask about your pet; whether you're concerned, or just curious.
The reason why I created this thread is because, one of my fish is swimming upside down. It's still breathing, but it's just swimming upside down.
It's a Calico Ryukin goldfish. And on these certain types of fish, they have a kind of slope-line-thing on both its sides. This slope helps the fish determine which way is up.
Now, I'm concerned. It's still swimming upside down. Help?
Here's a picture of it. My dad took it out of the tank, and put it into a bowl, so it could get fresh oxygen in new water. I'm pretty sure it doesn't have Swimmer's Bladder, since this has happened once before. But, now it's happened again.
Any suggestions?
