Flower horn fish suffering with disease help

Looks like it may have bloat. The abdomen looks really distended
At this point there is probably not much that can be done.
The normal treatment would be to add some epsom salts (Magnesium sulfate)
to the water and to soak its food in a solution of epsom salt, but I doubt seriously that it will eat the way it currently looks.

I will buy that salt..this will be cured..it's become flat and floating...just fish is opening mouth and closing it..can you suggest some more tips.
I keep looking at your picture . Could you post a couple more pictures. Maybe one looking straight on. These fish are very prone to getting bloat especially if they are feed a high protein diet to much and to often.
But this fish may have dropsy. I can't tell from the one photo.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. It looks to me that this could be a case of dropsy.
I'm sorry to say that once it reaches this point it's tough for the animal to recover.
You can go ahead with the epsom salt treatment. This will help to relieve some of the bloating and excess water retention.
If it is Dropsy you will need to start antibiotics as well.
