Hello this is my first post here and I'm hoping for some help. I've had my saum for about 6 years, he is large about 11-12 in. Recently I've notice some bloating and no poop. I did a kanaplex treatment to no avail and now I'm doing Epsom baths in hopes that he is just constipated. It looks as though there is a blockage (pic of anal area attached) and the epsom bath only restyled in a tiny pebble of poop that squeezed past the side of the blockage. His back end is buoyant and looks grossly distended. Should I try something for parasites or worms? I have never introduced any new tank mates the entire time I've had him. I have a 60g with only a bristle nose and the saum. Any advice would be appreciated! Thanks!
