Before & after images, Ill effects small bodies of water and infrequent water changes

I got another rescue today,
Poor guy was outta here, laying on his side,
Didn't move when you touched him,
Took me awhile before I knew he was even still alive,
He was in a tiny container, She Said he always had a swim bladder issue,

Brought him home, praying he survived long enough,
Put him in his new home, an extra 5 gallon I always keep ready and waiting,
Dropped in a little food and just let him set several hours,
Guess what, He's swimming UPRIGHT and eating, responds nicely to your presence,
So I think this guys well on his way up,
Here he is.

aw, he's beautiful, I hope he pulls through and makes a full recovery!
Animals are in a good way such simple creatures at times, some love and attention can really change their mood and then that's the start of them healing themselves and getting better.

Awww, poor little thing! I think he'll be fine with some tlc.
