I’ve had a snowflake eel for a little over a year and for the past couple weeks he has been acting strangely. He spends a lot of time out in the open (he used to always stay under the rocks with just his head exposed) and sometimes lays on his side and twists his body as if he’s in pain. He hasn’t eaten in about a month which is not too concerning to me since he has gone long periods of time without eating before. His diet consists of mainly silversides soaked in selcon and garlic with some krill occasionally. He has survived the tank being wiped out from ich/velvet 3 times without showing any signs of illness, but now I’m getting worried about him. I treated the tank with cupramine/quick cure every time. I think he may be constipated, his abdomen does look a little swollen and he had some kind of white thing hanging out of his anus. (photo attached) Any thoughts on what’s wrong/how to help him? Thanks
