My betta cole has swim bladder D=, he also ate his snail which may have helped him get swimbladder , he's been moved out of his 5 gal and into a smaller half filled Jar cause he was haveing problems staying balanced he has a java moss plant so he can lay on any idea on what i can do to help him???

he dove down in his 5 gal tank and got stuck floating on his side under his little plants if anyone's wondering why i moved him to a smaller tank, tempary of corse.

i will ethier be moveing my betta flare into cole's tank to keep it cycled or 2 guppies to keep it from looseing it's cycle.

I had a kinda similar problem with my female. She got swim bladder I believe from temp. shock. She acted like she was dying, then she'd be "normal"... then she would kinda teeter-totter between the two extremes. Now for the most part she is OK. She still kinda corkscrews up to the surface for air. Hopefully Cole will pull out of it like she did. :)
