So I've had this Oranda fish, named Sora, for about 3 or 4 years now and I'm just getting a little concerned.
I've just been to visit a friend who has one of around the same age and their shapes are much different, her's is less.... round than Sora, so it got me wondering if maybe he has Dropsy.
He's had a swim bladder problem in the past due to eating flakes from the surface of the water and taking in too much air and that tends to flare up again when he gets stressed too much.
The water is changed roughly every week and half, with the filter being cleaned every other day and a half water change once a week.
There's also 3 snails in the tank (and about 7 baby snails now too)
So what do you think? Does he seem normal for an Oranda of his age or should I start treating him for Dropsy?
