This is a typical thing. Bacterial infection, explains the bloated body shape as well, and yes, also affecting the swim bladder. This makes her a so-called "Bauchrutscher" (in German) which translates to stomach slider. This usually causes further problems like bruises on the belly which get infected...
Long story short: As such infections are most often the result of the breakdown of the immune system due to stress, meds will not help unless the holding conditions are improved at the same time.

Hello Martin, though I am not sure if I am adressing the right person, I still hope I am. I got 2 trios of Apistogramma psammophila from you some time ago. I was lucky to breed them, too, but, unfortunately, I got mainly males, 15, and only 2 females. That's why today, I have only three males left.
