A friend of mine has/had a flowerhorn(I have him now) he calls me and says he won't eat anymore... So I said try some small pieces of earthworm... So he says he ate it,so I'm like cool.. He calls me today and says he stopped eating a couple days ago and now has white poo hanging... And says come get him and try to save him.... So I pick him up tank and all get him home and do a 25% WC and go and get some metro from the lfs and some fd bloodworms to soak in garlic guard and Epsom salt... I know his stomach is BLOATED something serious and the white poo is it hex? Here's a pic of him also all the water params are good an the temp is 79-81... Any advise will be takin with great appreciation... Also why is it my friends with the sick or malnutrition fish geeeez....

poor guy . I would post this in illness and disease section . You can get a lot of helpful hints . But to me it does look like a parasite. I would try to give it a Epsom salt bath to help with the bloat . I would not try to feed him for a few days and treat for parasites. I am no expert but I would definitely suggest posting this on the disease section of the forums ! Hope this little bit of information helps you !.
 
I post it in the correct forum thank you for bringing that to my attention I forget about that.... And thanks for the reply every little bit helps
 
Yea look like hex if u can buy some clear its a new great medicine tht knocks out hex I use it ob my fh , n in 5 days he was bsck
