Gas bubble disease

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Gas bubble disease is a disease of fish that are exposed to water supersaturated with natural gases like oxygen, carbon dioxide, or nitrogen. It generally occurs in fish that live in aquariums and it becomes prominent whenever there is a change in temperature and pressure in natural environments, aquatic turbulence, and a disturbance in biotic metabolisms. Bubbles of gas may form in the eyes, skin, gills, and fins.
