Dear Dr.Tim Miller-Morgan
I have four tropical fish in a 30 gallon fish tank. I have had these fish for about 6 years. One of them is a Parrot fish which is quite large. It had developed an air pocket in its belly which caused it to turn upside down. The fish has been eating and living this way for two months.
Is there anything I can do to remove the air from its belly?
Thank you
Howard
I just wanted to say thanks again for the wet lab last Saturday, it has already been useful for me to understand better what is going on with my KOI.
