Flowerhorn Prolapse

[JSpilo]

Hi, my FH has a prolapse. Just noticed it and have added Epsom salt 1tbsp per 5 gallons to the tank.

With water changes, say I change out 30 gallons, I should re-add 6tbsp? How often should I do water changes? How long should it it take to see progress? Thanks for your help!

Turns out it's a female, it was her breeding tube. Found eggs this morning. Wish I saw them before I treated ?

Not a problem with the Epsom salt treatment.

Thanks for the reply!

But it's acting really skittish/scared. Never once before this treatment had it acted like this. Guess I'll just give her time and leave her alone.
