Bandi Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 So I have a 11-12 inch front who seems to have a floating problem, or maybe a sinking problem...depending on your point of view. It is eating well, active and seems fine other than the fact it can't seem to sink and swim underwater. It floats at the surface with a good half inch of it's back out of the water. Almost like it has a tummy full of air? Any suggestions with this? Anything I can do to correct the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingin' It Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 Swim bladder is the first thing that comes to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanks Posted June 9, 2013 Report Share Posted June 9, 2013 youtube it but you actually need to remove the air as the fish prob. has what is called bloat. Are you pre soaking your food? if not this might be causing it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
