I swear, it's always something. I've been observing this discus for a couple of days and I noticed he's looking a little fat, like he swallowed a marble or something. He's not behving ill, he's swimming/eating normally. Could he be constipated? Would aquarium salt work the same as epsom salt? Or should I use another treatment?
I tried to get a good shot of him from behind, but I can't post it, file is too large

He might just be fat from eating alot but it still doesnt hurt to put in epsom salt it just gives them a good clean out .
