hello everyone I just joined as i’m frantically trying to save one of my pea puffers as it swallowed some air well grabbing food from the surface. it keeps floating up and it’s trying to go down! I’ve already tried burping it lots but only ever got one bubble out. I’m totally freaking out and right now i’m letting it rest by letting it prop itself under a leaf so it won’t float up. any help is greatly appreciated my pea puffers mean the world to me and i’d hate to lose on over such a stupid thing that is totally my fault :( :cry:

he’s getting quite exhausted and i’m getting worried that I won’t be able to save him before it’s to late. I don’t want to burp him anymore because I want to avoid as much stress as possible.I also don’t have a breeder box to keep him separate from the other 2 pea puffers although i’m not to worried about them as they have never been aggressive and one of the other ones is it’s sister and i just feel terrible :cry:
