Hey all

My new Oscar is in a quarantine tank and for the last 3 days since I've got it, I have seen any poop on the bare bottom tank.

Also, its bottom seems to be a bit swollen with translucent fluff around it... see pics below.

It is eating fine. No bloating. Quite active

Any ideas if there is anything wrong with it, and should I treat it? Is it constipation or something worse like internal parasites?

cheers
Tim

You can treat with epsom salt. One cup per 100 gallons. Just in case...

maybe you have a new strain... an Oscar that dosen't just poop all day. You'll make millions!

I agree
