HI. My betta (her name is Baby Girl) was fine on Friday.. I
came in today and she was stuck on the bottom of the bowl,
on the rocks.. I tapped the glass (as I always do) and she
tried swimming and started flopping around and couldn't
swim.. I reached in and held her in my hand (while under
water) . she wasn't stuck, she tried to swim and fell to
the bottom... Is she dying?? She's approx. 2 years
old... Please help. I am soooooo upset........... I know
it's silly, but she is my 'baby girl'..

When they don't stay afloat, this is a sign of a swim bladder problem. This
controls their position in the water. It is possible she's constipated. Try feeding
her baby food peas on a toothpick. They sink, so that might make it easy to get
the food to her. Give that a try. Let me know if you have any ??s
