Swimming

There's these two betta fish, a male and a female, that have been sitting in the back area behind our fishwall for weeks now.
Why?
Because they have this swim bladder issue.
Not the normal kind where they get stuck at the top and can't swim down.
No this is the opposite.
Where both bettas have problems swimming around their little cups. So they spend most of the time sitting on the bottom of the container. 
Like they can still swim around.
It just takes them more effort to swim because if they stop...they just sink to the bottom.

And I felt bad for them.
Like no one is going to buy them because they're 'defective.' 
And unfortunately I don't have a small enough tank for them (as putting them in my 125 I think would be too much for them) and don't have the space to buy yet another tank for the two.

So.
I put them in our snail tank. 
As it's a mellower tank and would give them the chance to be in a bigger space.
So hopefully that works well for them.
And maybe with swimming around it might help them.... 
So we'll see. ^^;;
