Re: Goldfish with swim bladder disease
Is she in a pond or aquarium?
I would want to have the goldfish in an isolation tank to help with its recovery because I'm picturing it having a hard time eating and possibly getting stressed by other fish or picked on.
I have not had any experience of SBD so apologies if my suggestions are unhelpful.

Re: Goldfish with swim bladder disease
Changing how you feed can help with swim bladder as they can sometimes swallow too much air I believe with some types of foods. What do you feed currently? If it's fish flakes definitely switch to a pellet. Frozen/thawed peas are often given to help with swim bladder too. I hope he's improved xx
