swim bladder problem

Well one of my 2 month old platie fry will not come off the bottem. I had one that did this before and she did not survive. I think it could be a swim bladder problem or she is constipated.

What can I do for the swim bladder?

I'm going to test the water here as soon as I get this posted.

She may be constipated. She big and have no color. Could I do a epson salt bath? How much salt would I put in? Would that help if it was constipated.

I don't what to spend very much $$ if I can.
Thanks

I tested the water and the Am is HIGH, The tank never cycled. No nitrites.

I have them is a bowl of fresh warm RO water. We are leaving now to get a breeder box for my or my moms tank for them to be in till the tank is cycled

I will keep you up to date.

Now,one of my moms Molly was acting weird,so we put in our QT and now all it does stays at the bottom of the tank and kind of lists to one side,like it is dizzy or drunk.

I there any thing we can do? What Med would we need to get?

It's kind of a best guess thing with that, but it sounds like an internal problem.. either internal parasites or bacteria. You could try Parasite Clear to see how it responds.
