How to Treat Swim Bladder Disease | Betta Fighting Fish

What Is The Swim Bladder?
Your bettas swim bladder is the organ which allows him to control his buoyancy. Instead of constantly swimming to stay in place, the swim bladder does the work instead. Helping your betta save energy and swim easier. It is located behind all the other organs, so if any of them swell it can affect your betta.

What Is Swim Bladder Disease?
Swim bladder disease isn’t actually a disease. It’s a term used to describe any ailment whether it’s illness, damage or situation that causes your bettas swim bladder to stop working properly

What Are The Common Causes Of Swim Bladder Disease In Bettas?

In the vast majority of cases, swim bladder disease is caused by overfeeding. Bettas are particularly gutty fish and they will never stop eating, even when they’re full. This often makes them constipated which can have an effect on their swim bladder. Not only can this cause them to become constipated but it can also make fatty deposits build up in their bladder.

Parasites
If you haven’t shocked your betta or you’re confident they haven’t been overfed then it could be parasites. Parasitic worms can infest your betta’s stomach and intestines. Which makes it a lot harder for your betta to swim. While parasitic worms aren’t normally fatal, in extreme cases this can happen and can result in swim bladder disease.

Bacterial Infection
Swim bladder disease can also be caused by bacterial infections. This along with parasites is likely due to poor water quality. If your betta is suffering from a bacterial infection then swim bladder disease will likely be a symptom along with many other symptoms.
