my male 6" JD has a realli noticeable bloated stomach. some has told me it's an internal bacterial infection, other told me it's just congestion...i don't know which one it is :nilly:
it's still eattin pretty normally til' yesterday. when i feed the fishes today, it just stayed on the bottom not doing anything. usually it would swim up to get the food. i donno, any advice?
 
My butti got really bloated when I fed it meaty foods. I changed its diet and things changed but thats all I know.....

Add some Epsom salt and fast for a week...If no results, give him a good feeding after the week, do a 50% water change, RE-add 50% of the amount of Epsom salt you added the first time, and fast for another week. Goof luck.
