HELP!! Flowerhorn Very Bloated

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
wut... he is bloated don't do surgery.. dose with epsom.
Thanks for reply Aria. I went to the pet shop here where i bought my FH and they actually suggest to put an Epsom salt which i did already for 3days now so far his doing well and actively swimming around the tank. I’m just wondering why he is still bloated and not interested with the pellets. What i did is i gave him the OCEAN FREE SUPER INTERNAL & ULCER AWAY hoping that the bloat will subside. I will observe again for a couple of days and see what will happen. Hopefully it will improve. Really appreiate the reply. Will keep you posted. Thanks very much and Merry Christmas!
 
merry christmas! the most recent photos you posted his stomach looks pretty standard. When you purchased him was his stomach smaller? I ask because there is actually a big belly gene present in most of these fh's. If it wasn't there then you can always try soaking peas in epsom and feeding it to the fish.
