Golden Rhomboid doing summersaults

[aznepydna]

I purchased a Rhomboid wrasse about two months ago. I put her in qt and treated with prazi pro. She eats everything I feed her. About a month ago she started doing summersaults. Could not keep her balance but through what looked like great effort still managed to eat. I thought about putting her out of her misery but Mark at Blue Zoo said she might pull through. Well a month later and she can keep her balance again. Not perfect yet but much improvement. I assume this is a swim bladder issue. Anyone else have this experience and did the fish make a full recovery?

Swim bladder issue, it'll be gone in a few days.

Usually caused by poor collection, or improper decompression methods.

In any case, goodluck. Rhomboids have always been my favorites.
