Swim Bladder Disease

Swim Bladder Disease

Swim bladder disease, or swim bladder disorder, is characterized by a fish’s inability to regulate its buoyancy. The most obvious symptom is a fish who is unable to swim without great effort, and sits either at the top or bottom of the pond. SBD is the common name for two types of buoyancy disorders, each having its own possible causes and treatments. It often times leads to death if the fish is not taken care of properly.
