    Landlord, your goldfish has swim bladder disorder:

    Causes] There are many reasons for goldfish to suffer from fish bladder disorder, it is generally believed that this is due to the low water temperature, poor cold tolerance of goldfish, especially in the case of severe frost makes the swim bladder lose its ability to regulate balance. Goldfish species such as Shouxing Head, Lion Head, Blister Eye, and Butterfly Tail Tail with a short body and a developed sarcoma or blister on the head are more likely to develop this disease.

    Symptoms] Sick fish do not die lying on their sides, standing upside down, or even belly facing the sky, floating in the water or sinking to the bottom, when touching the sick fish with their hands, they can temporarily resume normal swimming, but the above abnormal state will be repeated every few moments, and sometimes they can eat, and their growth and development are significantly slower than that of healthy fish, but this fish generally does not die quickly. Once the temperature gradually rises, the condition may be relieved or even almost normal.

    Season] is generally more common in late autumn and winter.

    Control methods]1) The active method is to move the breeding fish indoors or in a greenhouse before and after winter. If wintering outdoors, it is advisable to bury one-third to one-half of the tank in the soil and cover it at night to prevent freezing.

    2) If it is a goldfish lying on its side or sinking bottom, you can use a basin with water to scoop up the goldfish, and then use a small sewing needle to thread non-perishable nylon cotton thread, put on a piece of foam the size of a bottle cap at one end, and then thread the sewing needle through the base of the first strip in front of the goldfish's dorsal fin, tie 2 knots, fasten it on the dorsal fin, and fix the foam buoy on it. The distance between fixing the back line should not be too long, because the goldfish can still be on the side of the bottom of the pool (tank) if it is too long. Don't be too short, too short goldfish can't go down to the middle of the water, feed or swim.

    As for the position of the buoy, it depends on the depth of the water level in the tank (pool). In short, it is advisable for goldfish to no longer sink to the bottom and lie on their sides, and the fish body can go down to the middle water to feed. Only in this way can the goldfish swim freely in the water and forage for food without lying on its side and sinking to the bottom.

    3) If it is upside down or the body of the fish floats up, and the abdomen is facing the sky, you can use a plexiglass button, and the size depends on the size of the goldfish. The specific method is to fix the button with a soft and non-perishable nylon thread, and then use a basin to fish out the diseased fish with water, while tying a knot at the end of the two threads with the buckle from the button 6-10 cm, and then one person catches the goldfish, and the other person quickly hangs the buckle on the tail handle of the goldfish at the place where the knot is aligned. In this way, after the goldfish is put in the water, the upside-down goldfish is not easy to stand upside down because of the weight on the tail stalk.

    And the swimming is still free. But here to explain a point, the button should not be too big, too heavy, if too big, too heavy, the goldfish can not drag the button, it is inconvenient to swim. On the contrary, the button should not be too light, because it is too light to sag, and the goldfish tail fin should still float up or stand upside down.

    4) If it is an egg fingerling fish without dorsal fin, when suffering from fish irradiation disorder, the fish body is inverted, the sick fish can be raised in shallow water to control the inversion of the fish body, and increase its water temperature to facilitate the effect.

    5) The above phenomenon occurs in goldfish, which is related to factors such as the fish body is too short, the tail is small or turned upward, and the head features are too developed.

    If it is caused by lost bladder disease, the goldfish can be immobilized with a splint and allowed to recover slowly. If it's caused by overfeeding, stop feeding and tease the goldfish to digest the food. If it is caused by hypoxia, it is necessary to change the water or give oxygen in time.

    If it is caused by a sudden change in water temperature, it is necessary to keep warm first, and then oxygen. If it is caused by disease, the diseased fish should be removed and medicated**. If the goldfish belly is not particularly long and the condition is not very serious, it can generally be saved.

    But if the situation is very serious, then it will be very difficult to save them.

    Lost bladder disease: Goldfish will have their belly up when they have lost their bladder, and the goldfish can be immobilized with a splint to allow it to recover slowly. If it is a loss of swim bladder caused by malnutrition, we should also pay attention to improving the feed of goldfish, pay attention to nutritional matching, and use more fish food for them.

    Indigestion: When feeding goldfish, feeding too much food or feeding too large fish food particles may make goldfish indigestion, and goldfish will also turn their stomachs. In this case, stop feeding first, and tease the goldfish to make it move, promote digestion, and you can also put the goldfish in warm, shallow water to let it excrete.

    Hypoxia: It is very common for goldfish to have their stomachs turned due to lack of oxygen, and poor water quality or high density of goldfish can make goldfish hypoxia. It is best to add an oxygen pump to the fish tank for raising goldfish, and if not, the water should be changed in time to maintain a high level of dissolved oxygen in the goldfish living environment.

    Abrupt changes in water temperature: Goldfish are sensitive to sudden changes in water temperature, which can cause not only tummy flips but also other diseases. In this case, it is completely avoidable to pay attention to maintaining a stable water temperature.

    Once this happens, in addition to keeping the fish tank warm, it is necessary to increase the oxygen supply.

    Diseases: Rotten fin caused by poor water quality in the fish tank, or white spot disease infected with parasites can make goldfish tumble. At this time, the diseased fish should be fished out and soaked in non-iodine-free salt water or oxytetracycline**.

    First of all, it is necessary to understand what causes the goldfish to have its belly up:

    1. The reason why the goldfish's belly is facing upwards and their life is dying may be the lack of oxygen capacity in the water.

    2. If the water is changed carelessly, the water temperature difference is too large, which will also lead to the occurrence of goldfish belly turning;

    3. When goldfish are infected with imbalance, it will also cause the phenomenon of goldfish tumbling.

    Solution: 1. If the goldfish belly is carried on the face of the first two reasons, then as long as the water is oxygenated in time, the water temperature is adjusted, and the goldfish is provided with a suitable water environment for life, and the probability of healthy survival of the goldfish is still very large;

    2. If the goldfish has a belly up because of an imbalance infection, then the goldfish should be taken away from the tank to avoid infecting other goldfish, causing the belly of other goldfish to be upward.
