Caryl Posted December 1, 2005 Report Share Posted December 1, 2005 Are you able to do a post mortem? Having a look at the internal bits under a microscope may give some clues. If swim bladder, it is possible the food may have caused a problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
