Swim Bladder Treatment || Epsom Salt || Discus Fish

The swim bladder, gas bladder, fish maw, or air bladder is an internal gas-filled organ that contributes to the ability of many bony fish (but not cartilaginous fish) to control their buoyancy, and thus to stay at their current water depth without having to waste energy in swimming.

The best part about your videos are, you have footage of your own fish and the treatments you do are already done on your own fish, so we feel more confident trying it on our fish!

[@FwrapperAqua]

Thank you so much Bro

[@lauryntotton6504]

This really works! 2 days treatment and my pepper Cory is now back to normal and he was floating at the top of the tank for a few days. Thank you soooo much! 🙌🏻♥️

[@TheMansfieldlad]

I'm pretty sure reducing the water level has just saved my discus. I was sure it was a lost cause. Treated with epsom and raised temp for 3 days and did nothing. Within an hour of reducing the water level it started to crap. Thanks so much for this information

[@shorty94ism]

That seems to have worked for me as well. Put my little guy in a cup with about an inch of water while i cleaned his tank & he seemed to swim much better in the cup. Hopefully once i put him back in his tank he will be able to swim much better in there as well. Will update on how he’s doing for those wondering

[@avinashnbhatt]

The most common talk on discus hobby

[@sauryavaghela5267]

Same issue mene experience kiya tha. iske piche ka cause jan ne ko mila muje. There was leak in my aquarium (bare bottom 250-ltr) so i transfer them in hospital tank (60ltr) with same water and canister filter. After repair my main tank i transferred the discus in main tank. And they swim side ways. And i was guided by experience person that they have water pressure issue. Lower the water tank level and slowly slowly add the water day by day. Koi koi baar ye bhi ek dikkat aatihe aur hamse najar andaz ho jati he. Hope ye exercise informative laga ho. And currect if i am wrong..

[@smarnz209]

I can confirm this 100% worked for me. I have a gold Severum who had swim bladder disease. Was also able to hand feed my fish peas as well (which could have also helped). Only needed to keep my fish in for one day.

[@hussainsaiz8801]

Always great to watch your videos , simple short and full of information 👍

[@nadeemshaikh7683]

Nicely done sir, thanks for sharing ur knowledge. Happy fish keeping

[@glyndavies8666]

Thanks for all of your great videos. I have a discus showing signs of swim bladder,which I have quarantined (before viewing this video but exactly the same treatment) - my question is could it be some other ailment as he looks really healthy and was eating OK before being quarantined?

[@rmusic8969]

My Tetra is laying to its side and having trouble swimming. I did an Epsom salt bath for 10 minutes but haven't seen any improvement. I am now trying antibiotics. Hope it works.

[@subinsharma43]

Can i use backtonil FW for this problem??? And how to use please if possible for u then help ne my severum fish last 4/5 days problem

[@jailaran-mf7tm]

Sir , I have one doubt, sir first day only put epsom salt enough or two days we want to put.

[@FwrapperAqua]

Only one time is enough... If you do what change then add the salt as per water change qty

[@logeshwarana.r4461]

Very useful sir pls do more videos on disease management in discus

[@FwrapperAqua]

Please see the Playlist on fish treatment in the end of the video... I have made lots of videos

@@FwrapperAqua ya sir sure thk u sir for ur valuable reply

[@jawedamin]

Very helpful video for me.

[@aniruddha173]

Did you pour all of the mixture at once? What should I do if the problem still exists after the first dosing?

[@benjaminbenjamin5137]

Bro can we use simply the Epsom salt for every water change for precautions and if yes what is the measure to add every water change.

[@FwrapperAqua]

It's not at all recommended.... Why will you medicate the tank for no reason.... 🤷... It's like saying I will take paracetamol every day to prevent covid

[@jabestin5082]

We have to keep the fish cointinously in the epsom salt water tank for 2-3 days?

[@FwrapperAqua]

Yes...

[@tanishkumar130]

I have tried this epsom salt treatment on parrot fish for about 5-6 days but no improvement Plz suggest me any other treatment

[@sometingfishy6662]

Very useful for hobyest

[@saralowe_arts]

Thanks for a great video, how long should the Epson treatment last for? I have a hospital tank for my angelfish, I have Epson salt, and the fish is on its side. But still swimming and looking healthy despite its lack of swimming control. Do I need to repeat the process every day? Adding more salt or just leaving the water as it is? Also, when do I introduce feeding again? My angel doesn’t like mushed peas sadly. I’m not sure what else to do from there, thanks for your advice. I am on day 1 of treatment. P.s my water parameters are always good, I check it regularly my other fish are doing well. It’s just this angelfish thats poorly.

[@FwrapperAqua]

Please do 50% water change every day... For 5 to 7 days.. Try to maintain the same temperature... Keep water levels low only... And redose only 50% of the Epsom salt... If it dose not cure then you may have to go for antibiotics.. Which is a little complicated process..

[@saralowe_arts]

@@FwrapperAqua Will do, thank you for taking the time to reply and for all your advice, stay blessed.

[@FwrapperAqua]

@@saralowe_arts most welcome 🙏

[@acoustikaryan3135]

My fish has dropsy from 2 months, i tried epsom salt, antibiotics (bactanol, paracedol) but nothing happened. Fish is not eating anything. What to to now?

[@catastrophicphycho9250]

so in the 2nd or 3rd day of thia treatment do I have to add same amount of salt again in the same water that I used in the first day? if I do that the salt density in the water will become twice or thrice compare to the first day

[@rahulchakravorty7384]

Sir please make a video on sump filters 🙏 Is it really good filters? How it's different from other filters?

[@renorozario5861]

Bro its same like this but it's up ways not eating at al Ats always at Connor of the tank

[@FwrapperAqua]

Why should all the healthy fishes go through treatment for just one fish... Think about it

[@benedickdiaz]

Sir, my tank is 50gal. How many spoon of epsom salt i used.

[@FwrapperAqua]

Please convert gallons into liters.... And you need to add 1 gram per liter

[@jibinjose7156]

Do we have to add salt every day? Or just once and wait for 2 days

[@FwrapperAqua]

Once every 2 to 3 days... Repeat once you do a water change...

[@bilalmulla5364]

Waiting sir ❤️❤️

[@YashikaNithila]

Bro during the treatment period what is the percentage of water change has to be done on daily and how much salt to be added again

[@FwrapperAqua]

2 days no water change required.. Even if you do 50 percent.. Redose salt to how much water you added

[@udayrajuk4542]

Sir my fish swim bladder won't get repaired by Epson salt

[@dazzle5651]

Bro, can u please tell us what is the optimum water temperature for discus fishes. And what is reason behind discus getting black spots in the body??

[@FwrapperAqua]

26-28 degrees C... Black spots is called Discus peppering. Very common in few varieties of Discus... It can be due to lots of reasons water condition, tank positioning, tank mates, tank background other dominant Discus or illness... Mainly this happens due to stress... Reason for stress can be all the above

[@cashicashi4904]

Not True. Mainly for kamouflage. Thats why they have those peppering

[@_SAMMY_MUSIC_]

Did u feed the fish during the treatment if no.then how many days should I not feed the fish

[@FwrapperAqua]

Bro when the fish is this condition it will not eat... Then why ask??

[@_SAMMY_MUSIC_]

@@FwrapperAqua then how to know that fish is ready to eat and after how many days should I feed it

For 2 days not required

How to treat dropsy in big fancy goldfish.although fish is active and taking feed but pineconing is still there

[@TheMansfieldlad]

This is probably too late but treat in exactly the same way as this video except the high temperature. DO NOT FEED. If this does not work it may be bacterial infection. If so you may need to add aquarium salt which is different to epsom. Make sure you research the correct dosage and do not just substitute epsom for aquarium salt as it will likely kill the fish

[@vijaya7402]

Should we feed the fish durin treatment

[@FwrapperAqua]

Very little

[@vijaya7402]

Ok.thanks

[@birdlady312]

Hi, thank you for making this simple video and super easy to understand. Some of the videos out there dont really show example. I just want to check on what causes my discus to float at the corner top tank and breathing slowly. Dorsal and anal Fins like not expanding but more of like closed tight to body. Swimming fine for a moment then goes back to horizontal swimming then slowly goes down tank. Its semi alert. Currently im following your videos hoping that its swim bladder issues.

[@birdlady312]

Also the nitrite seems abit high. Mid tone purple on the api freshwater test kit. Im new to fishes.
