swimming upside down

Question
HI, MY ciclid is swimming upside down and won't eat at all. How can I help him?

Answer
Hi Brenda,
 Unfortunately that is very bad and typically indicates a severe problem with its swimbladder (the organ that a fish has to help keep its balance).  There really isn't anything you can do about this.  Sorry.
