fish strugling to stay afloat
our moor is finding it hard to swim around the tank.it looks healthy and is probably about 12 months old so age is not the issue.it will swim around if it thinks food is available.does anyone know if this is something to do with swim bladder?

Blackmoors in my experience have terrible swim bladders. I've never had one alive for long.
Stop feeding for a couple of days. If it falls sideways, then you've probably had it Good luck!

constapation can cause swim bladder problems and I also think if the water chemistry can cuase problems.

Feed live daphnia and add some salt to the water to ease osmotic pressure.Shelled frozen peas can help also.
