One of my two alligator gars is suffering from something that looks almost like dropsy. This started a few weeks ago with just his eyes bulging, but has worsened to include pinecone-ing scales. I initially tried treating with a little bit of aquarium salt and melafix, but it never cleared up. He hasn't been eating recently, and the bulging scales have gotten slightly worse. I may try a higher dose of salt without the melafix and see if he shows improvement. Any other advice/ input is appreciated. ![20220625_152305[1].jpg 20220625_152305[1].jpg](https://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/forums/data/attachments/1253/1253571-80c0c30da083f67113fbba1a0ab4390d.jpg?hash=gMDDDaCD9n)
