goldfish
Tthat's pretty cool!!! but isn't it time to put the fish in a bag of water then into the freezer????How much longer can a gold fish live???I mean if this was temporary that would be great but won't he have to stay in the sling until he dies?
what's the matter?---cat got you'r tongue.

feeding peas is common when goldfish gulp too much air and float on the surface constantly or when they're constipated. the peas clean out the digestive tract rather speedily. the long-term solution is usually to stop feeding floating foods, and/or stop feeding so much or feed more greens. swim bladder disorders could also be caused by infections (virual or bacterial) or injury (or geanetics, but i think that's usually seen in younger fish). if the problem was caused by something on the second list, i'm not sure if the goldfish would recover. hopefully, it's caused by air gulping or constipation and they can fix the problem fairly easily.
