Help! My oscar has bloat!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Day number 4 of treatment. He is still alive but has no energy. His stomach looks terrible and his anus seems to be very swollen. It might be to late but he has lasted this long so I am not going to give up yet. This guy is a fighter and just may pull through.
 
Hoping for the best.

Btw try broccoli, juxtaroberto fed broccoli to his pacus and the amount of fiber it had completely cleaned out their stomachs of all poop, it could help if its just constipation
 
Another oscar and a convict started showing signs of bloat as well. Should I put them in with the original oscar?
 
I think it may be to late for him. I really hopes he pulls through but I'm having my doubts.
 
I'm so sorry to hear of your troubles and I really hope all your guys pull through!! I raised Oscars as a kid and have just recently gotten back into them. Mine are still little babies but this thread has been very informative with good tips on how to keep them healthy.
 
Well my big guy died this morning. It was just to late for him. My convict is undergoing treatment right now, I caught this early so I think he will pull through. My tank feels so empty now, without my big oscar.
 
Man, I am so sorry for your loss! I know you were trying. I really hate to hear this and was pulling for him. You did well.

Sorry brother...
