Bloating?
Sorry guys, ive looked every where on google and cant find it so is there any way you can tell me what this is? My one guppy (yeah I know guppy -.-) has what appears a bloated stomach, and he is also lethargic and only moves when theres food, he sits in the back left corner near the heater at the top, or at the front left bottom corner on the gravel, im really not sure whats wrong, Unfortuantly I dont have a tester kit and thats next on my list I used my last strip on friday and my LFS was closed for the weekend so, and my water temp is 78 F so I dont think its the temp... Other tank information is in my sig thats for the help

Salt the tank a little and try to feed your guppy some boiled deshelled peas that are smashed up a little to help him epass the bloating. I wouldn't worry about quarentining him.
75 Gallon South Cichlid: Tiger Oscar and Jack Dempsey
55 Gallon GT Tank: 1 Male GT and 8 Giant Danio
20 Gallon Long: Waiting for eco-complete planted red substrate that has been delayed 2 weeks due to weather.
