  1. If it was bacterial you can disinfectant the tank before adding any more fish with a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution just leave your filter running it turn into H20 and oxygen after 24hrs

  7. Epsom salt is used to swim bladder as Epsom salt acts as a muscle relaxant to relieve pressure on the swim bladder
