Assuming the problem is associated with internal parasites, metronidazole may be used otherwise use epsom salts.
 
I have had poor results with both epsom and metro. I think in both cases this last year it was blockage from krill shrimp. I am moving to market shrimp w/o shell and see how it goes. Both fish ate krill the night prior to floating and I am pretty sure it is because they get exited and gulp it down. Gulping gets air and also they dont chew properly in an effort to get more than they need.
