So today I've noticed that my fish wasn't eating properly and when I took a proper look at his kok, it had really decreased in size! His feces is cottony and he looks to have no appetite. I am freaking out as no fish store is open at this hour. What medication should I buy tomorrow and will his KOK ever return to normal size?! Here's a picture of some white feces stuck to my filter tube. I just finished doing a 75 percent water change

Going to the LFS right after work tomorrow to get some metro. He's acting fine and he just pooped and it seemed normal. How would I apply Epsom salt to my tank?

Same thing happened to mine when he had hex. Their koks decrease when they're scared, stressed or sick. It'll go back to normal once they're okay.
 
Thanks guys. Ordering a bag of kens metro food today. Souzie how did you apply metro to the tank? I saw your thread a couple of weeks ago but I can't find it

I did a 6 day treatment and used Hikari's metro...1 capful per 10 gallons of water. I also added 1 tablespoon of epsom salt per 10 gallons of water.

Hope that helps!!
