here's my dempsey when i noticed he had ick and the bloating, you can see the whitish belly. i am not sure if it was bloat but when i saw him scratching and having lil spasms i quarintined him in a 10g with a tablespoon of salt and ick parasite killer. he was fine after 2 weeks.
I broke a Jungle anti-parasite tablet into 3rds, I dissolved it into small tupperware container soaked his bloodworms for about 10 minutes. Fed them to him a few at a time, he ate them all. So thats good. I hope my idea worked, I'm not sure if this has ever been tried before. Tomorow I will feed him some peas to try to help with his stomach bulge. And the cherry on top is now I kinda notice the sheilds around his eyes look a little bit bigger than they should be and I want to say a little cloudy but not much, maybe I am digging here or maybe the poor guy can't just catch a break, he is falling apart, 
Well im not giving up, I'll keep you posted!
