I've had this Molly since April and it's been perfectly fine until now. It has been swimming with its tail fin up over its head and is always bumping into glass due to loss of control.

I'm certain it's swim bladder so I started hand feeding it peas. I've been doing 20% wc everyday and feeding it peas twice a day for the past 4 days.

My pH is 7.4, Ammonia between 0-0.25, Nitrite 0.25, and Nitrate 0 and I keep the temperature at 76.

I don't know what else I could do to help this poor guy out :(

Balloon mollies are prone to intestinal diseases due to their distorted shape, just like many fancy goldfish. Keep feeding it peas and hope it improves.
