Hi , Thank you so much for your video. My Discus looks exactly the same as your and his belly is very big now. I have tried some Table Salt (cooking Salt) but it seem not working . I am going to try some Epsom Salt then . Hopefully it will work
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren I am very new to fish keeping. My dwarf gourami had bloating, I had put in salt but I did not know what was wrong. Sadly he passed this morning:( but, I now know how to treat it in the future
I thinks maybe u should treat the individual fish instead of the whole tank because all of them popping together can cause an ammonia sprike....an also i been told that u should dissolve the salt in advance before adding to ur tank
I'm hoping me boy pulls through, he's on his side with a huge belly 😭😭 I'm hoping the epsom salts help, the water is already at 30 and I can't up it due to the other fish in the tank
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren thank you, I've only had him for a week I'm going to be so devo if I lose him. I've gotten really attached to him.😭 His name is Scar
Nawww 😔 really hope he makes it that's horrible. Has he been eating well? I'm not sure why only one gets it, but I've wondered if it's because they eat too quickly and swallow too much air while they eat? When did he start showing signs of it?
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren I think he overeats, or eats to quickly but I used food that sinks to they pick up the food, so he shouldn't be taking air into his belly but I'm gathering his is caused by fermentation in the belly. He had no signs last night this morning at about 11ish turned the light on and he was struggling against the buoyancy of his belly and floating on his side via his belly.I've Beens spending the rest of my time stressing over him. I've got the light off rn because he prefers it, I'm hoping it'll calm him so he just let's the epsom salt do it's thing(they bet a bit of natural light so they can still see)
I usually add a little bit of salt into the water everytime I do water change. But curing fish is different we gonna need more salt and after the fish get better do 1/3 water change to floss the salt out it gonna be fine a little bit of salt in the water kill very very little bacteria but it gave alot benefit to the fish and bacteria gonna grow back. U should start using salt for your fish but do some research fish because u can overdose easily water evaporation is more likely to cause the overdose
I'm currently treating an adult Discus for bloat. I'm following instructions where it says 1 tablespoon Epsom salt per 10 Gallons. And same dosage after 4 hours if fish doesn't excrete waste...and another same dosage after 4 hours. Repeat next day starting with a WC. So im wondering here it says 1 tablespoon per 40 gallons. I'm treating in a 55-gallon aquarium. Am I overdose?
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!!! I’ve just done a water change (I do a 50% once a week). I haven’t tested the water yet, because I just did the water change and are letting the water “cycle” for the night before testing it in the morning. But! My Gold Dust molly is bloated and hasn’t defecated in about a week! I’ve only been in the hobby for about 3 years and have NEVER dealt with this situation before. Long story short, I’ve done research and performed an Epsom salt bath. US measurements called for 1 tablespoon of Epsom salt per 1 gallon of water for 10-15 mins, place the fish in 1/4 tablespoon of Epsom salt per 1 gallon of water for 5 minutes, and then place the fish back into the main tank. She still has not defecated and still seems to swim in circles, though not as frequently. How often do I give my Molly an Epsom salt bath? Should I increase the amount of Epsom salt placed into the gallon of water? If so, how much is the increase? If not, what can I do to save her life?
Am hoping the camera lens makes them look so thin... They look small because it is 750 liters. Lol. No nearly as much driftwood as most hobbyists would put in a tank that size.

Do in a separate tank! 5 gallon bucket with epson salt for 15 minutes to 30.
Thanks for the info same story as your discus it worked 🐠
Oh awesome!! 😊😊
I will follow ur advice thank you. Love the accent btw...
Thank you 😊
Live result, Satisfying video. And super happy fish, super attractive u.
Hi did you do a water change the next day and i how long do you dose the tank for ie:- one week, two day thx
Hi ,
Thank you so much for your video. My Discus looks exactly the same as your and his belly is very big now.
I have tried some Table Salt (cooking Salt) but it seem not working .
I am going to try some Epsom Salt then . Hopefully it will work
Fingers crossed your discus gets better! 🤞🤞🤞
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren I am very new to fish keeping. My dwarf gourami had bloating, I had put in salt but I did not know what was wrong. Sadly he passed this morning:( but, I now know how to treat it in the future
tq very much
so did the fish end up living a long life?
Epsom salt age old treatment I use to treat the fish separately for ten minutes and return it back to the main tank it seemed to help many ailments
It’s great hey!! 👏👏😁
I thinks maybe u should treat the individual fish instead of the whole tank because all of them popping together can cause an ammonia sprike....an also i been told that u should dissolve the salt in advance before adding to ur tank
Yes I treated mine that way. Put it in 2 gallons of water and it worked just the same. That way I didn't have to deal with the whole tank.
How long can you leave the Epsom salts in the tank before you’ll need to do a water change?
Have you tried this treatment for worms?
I left it in for a day then took it out. I haven’t tried it for worms, I’m not too sure how effective it would be on worms. 😊
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren I’m pretty sure the salt will help with making the worms less active in the fish but won’t remove
Hi there, when you do a water change, do you warm up the water before you add it in?
Hello 😊 yeah I make sure the water is the same temperature as the tank
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren - even for cold water fish.?
@@sunflower6434 I just match the temperature that their water is, so if it’s cold then I wouldn’t heat it up 😊
Honestly, I'm not sure why but when I do a large water change my discus have big poops.
nice vid
Will this work with salt water fish?
My discus is swimming up side down. Doesn't look good. Moved him to another tank. The other fish were starting to go after him
Happen to me 3 days ago they started bully him and dead
Is this salt water?
Can I do this same tactic to help African dwarf frogs with bloat? Since they are fresh water i want sure...
I’m not too sure sorry, have never looked into it for frogs. Would hate to give you wrong advice. 😊 hope you find a solution for them! 🤞🤞
I'm hoping me boy pulls through, he's on his side with a huge belly 😭😭
I'm hoping the epsom salts help, the water is already at 30 and I can't up it due to the other fish in the tank
Oh bummer, it's so horrible seeing them like that! 😔😔 I have my fingers crossed for you. 🤞 hope he pulls through!
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren thank you, I've only had him for a week I'm going to be so devo if I lose him. I've gotten really attached to him.😭
His name is Scar
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren do you know why only one discus has this happen but not the others?
I've got another boy (Hades) and he's healthy as ever
Nawww 😔 really hope he makes it that's horrible. Has he been eating well? I'm not sure why only one gets it, but I've wondered if it's because they eat too quickly and swallow too much air while they eat?
When did he start showing signs of it?

Salt put into main tank not kill the good bacteria?
I usually add a little bit of salt into the water everytime I do water change. But curing fish is different we gonna need more salt and after the fish get better do 1/3 water change to floss the salt out it gonna be fine a little bit of salt in the water kill very very little bacteria but it gave alot benefit to the fish and bacteria gonna grow back.

Of course

A year now..
Did u get help?
@@bubblerings She ended up passing away a few days later. But before she did, she gave me 4 fry. It was definitely bittersweet.
😘
Need water change after that?
Sure did 😊
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren 50% or 100%?
I did 100% 😊
@@SimpleAquariumsLauren thank you 😁
No worries! 😊
This is the start of the transition to the salty side.
Hehe sure is!! 😁
It killed my fish :(
its better to take out logs, plants from the discus tank..too much of fungus in there....most of ur fishes are stunted
Am hoping the camera lens makes them look so thin... They look small because it is 750 liters. Lol. No nearly as much driftwood as most hobbyists would put in a tank that size.
You are right about fungus, if she uses Soft woods.. I would not think that she uses those, here..
