This is to pass out the info regarding how I treated my Emperor angel fish .
Finally after 3 weeks of treating my emperor angel finally figured out how to treat this as long as the fish is eating.
These are the treatments I followed .
1) gave API general cure for 5 days -- didn't work
2) gave boiled green peas for 3-4 days -- didnt work
3) Dosed prazipro for 3 days. -- didn't work
4) Gave kanamycin + Epsom salt .. The fish started having protruded anus.

4) Finally I took a chance and mixed pellet food + little organic castor oil This did the trick . The castor oil really triggered a diarrhea for other fish too . The amount of poop that came out of my angel was unbelievable.

Castor oil is generally safe for animals. If any one thinks other wise please let me know . the Emperor is so relieved and active now.
This post is for general awareness and to pass out the info.
Thanks for all the members who responded to my other posts .

That’s really interesting would never have thought of that. I’ll keep that in mind with my emperor. Thanks for sharing!
