Thanks.

I am using aquarium salt at the moment.

What would be the dosage of Epsom salt I should use?

Epsom salt can be found in pharmacy

Hi Bro

Yes, you are right, but those problem were from 15 month ago. Was due to my lack of experience at the time. Almost lost him.

He was recovered, once I relocated him into a large tank. although not all its fins were healed.

The problem now is really the yellow colour poop. and swimming tilted.15% head down.

I am doing daily water change 20%-30%, with 30 degree temp and aquarium salt. He seems release poop every time after a water change. the problem didn't seem to get worse. And he seems to be slightly better. I am now just waiting to see better signs from him.

But any advise that would help him to recover sooner would be much appreciated.

Cheers

I think ur aro may hv swallowed some air while u were moving him from 1 tank to another or when he jumped.

Probably like Mod said, using epsom salt instead of normal aquarium salt, set heater higher to 32 degree, stop feeding, do regular wc and hope for the best.

Yea, I am pretty sure its either he swallowed air or was from my overfeeding.

But what I don't get is why is it still swallowing air these days from the water surface.

after monitoring for about 10 days now, with high temp and regular water change he doesn't seems to get much better or worse.

I thin am ready to use epsom salt tomorrow. Was told that to add 100g/100 liters of water. Is this the right dosages?

What ever the result of this experience, I think would be a good learning experience for myself and every aro keeper .

Cheers
