Fat silver dollar

[DeLgAdO]

k ive been noticing this for awhile

one of my silver dollars seems fat in the gut

it kinda looks like the fish had a big meal, but it doesnt eat alot.

the other two look normal

and im worried

sorry pics will have to wait till sunday so i can use my dads camera.

diet includes hikari pellets, shrimp, and some algae waffers (though the bastards dont go for them until they break apart)

im thinknig its the diet since they dont get alot of vegetable matter (kinda like malawi bloat or sumthin), i provide it but they wont eat it, its like they are spoiled on meat foods.

i doubt that its eggs.. could be an internal parasite i would seperate and treat her midly as if she did have something wrong and then go from there

it has metronidazole so it should work Ive used gel tec color enhancer before and its a high quality product.the gel soaks into pellets and whatever really well so it should be easy to get the fish to eat it

That stuff works great, smells a little but saved my fish. I would give it a shot.
