Oh my goodness!! That's huge. Poor GWS.

I read several more sites, and most the problems were things we've discussed. There was another possiblity... a tumor. I feel so bad for her.

Yeah, my female betta had swim bladder problems once and I fixed it... then she died of a gill disease... very sad.

I think it's safe to say that GWS doesn't have a swim bladder problem because that should have cleared up by now. She is quite the gorgeous little girl, and I hope she lives through this. I read that swim bladder disorder can also be caused by bacteria. You can try to find antibiotic food for her, as a just in case.

Keep me posted. I'm going out of town for a few days, so I may not be able to answer right away.
