Questionmy oscar is swimming sideways. He has lost of appetite and sleeps in a c
curled position. I tried treating him with parasite clear last week, did a 50%
water change, tried malifix. Still the same. He is 3 years old and is 14 inches
long. Currently using epsom salt. Please help I don't want him to die. He's
been like this for a week now. He eats a couple hikari pellets every day.
What should I do?
AnswerHi Pahoua,
I would keep up with the treatments and hope for the best. If it is internal parasites, one thing that works for some people is to get him to eat some thawed frozen peas. They help clear out the digestive tract. You can try that.
