It's pretty much the same shape as 2 weeks ago.

I switched its food source, it's on pellets now and no more prawns in the diet, so no additional sodium.

It's confirmed that it's virtually blind. 10 out of 10 strikes on the pellets were missed! It can detect shadow movement of my hand and other moving object, but it cannot locate the source of food nor snapping on other fishes in the vicinity.

In the other hand, it can swim upright, it can dive and surface without any problem, so I guess it doesn't have any swim bladder issue.

Thanks for the update.
Just,keep doing what your doing. Hopefully it will get bulk shape back. I did say could be 6 months or longer

I'm sorry for your loss. However, it looks worse than picture in the first post, still have sunken stomach, all dark, and skinny. It probably die from hunger. Don't blame the flagtail...
