Bloated Gourami

[rachels]

Hi everyone! i’m looking to get some help. i’ve noticed my gourami jaws has a bloated belly and has less energy than normal. this has been going on for about two days. i put him in epsom salt for a little while but i’m not sure if i did it correctly. he’s back in the tank now and seems to be doing the same. what should i do? how many times can he bathe in the salt? please help i would hate to see him get worse.

Don't feed him for a few days. Then start him on live food. He likes bugs that float on the surface.
