My balloon Molly (Comet) has swim bladder. Usually my boyfriend handles the sick fish because I am to busy freaking out about it. However this time I didn't have a choice. I put peas in there with her. Anything else I can do to help?

We actually have two breeder nets so we can clean them out easily. And we have some newborn fish food that we already put in therefor them. We actually were expecting them a couple of weeks ago but we suspect the fish aborted the fry and another fish just happened to have them today.
