I have added the recommended amount and it said 100% pure magnesium sulphate on the packaging. I saw several reviews on the same product which said that they used it for their aquarium and it worked well. How long will it take for the bloating to reduce and the fish to start pooping. It’s been a few hours since I added the epsom salt.
Not sure how to confirm. Can always co tact the seller and ask. Yea can do 800g. Safe for most fish. Not that I’ve seen and other keepers have used it on flowerhorns.

Also should I haven’t fed my fish in almost 7 days now. Would it be better to put him in a smaller container with water and give a higher concentration of epsom salt. Will it give faster results so he ll poo faster and I can feed him earlier. He’s starting to get a bit more inactive and the bloating is still as bad as before.

It’s been almost a month and ig the epsom salt and frequent water changes ended up working. He’s back to normal. Colors back, kok is a bit smaller than before but getting back to original size. He’s as aggressive as before too. Thanks for the help! IMG_0972.jpeg
