Hi all. I came back from a 3 week trip and by hooded fairy wrasse had a bloated stomach when I got back. She was fine before. I was thinking that it might have found some extra food in the tank (pods, etc) while I was gone, but now I don't think so. When I‘m gone, my fish only get pellet food. When I’m home they also get nori and LRS. I’ve been back home for a week, and he’s getting worse, not better. I fed 100% NLS in my feeder up until just before I left, in which I added some TDO as well. I’ve planning on getting some peas today today to feed in case of blockage. I’ve read that this could be dropsy. It seems others have fed antibiotics mixed with food and focus in case of bacterial issues, and even metro for parasites. I have not seen any stringy white poop though. He’s eating and swimming well, just seems that he’s going to go downhill soon.
I guess my question is has anyone ever had this and been able to help the fish? What is a good sources of action? I’m attaching a pic from my iPad which I hope will help. Looking at the fish behind the flame. Thanks.
