got a pix?

Btw from my experience, SBP almost impossible to cure...reasons being:

1. if SBP caused by hole in stomach - incurable
2. SBP caused by bacteria??...maybe can cure if discover earlier
3. SBP by birth - FFL, etc...these are also hole in the stomach...IMHO incurable

try using EPSOM salt and let the aro release air from stomach so that it can remove the bouyancy problem...

interpret no.12 or which number I forgot treats SBP due to bacteria...you can try it out...no promises

you can give the vet a call to see whether he do quartz implant for aro. This maybe the only long term solution since it is a known birth defect.

bro kagemaru is right. SBP almost impossible to cure, unless at an early stage.


good luck!

Did this method comes into Spore?...I must have been out of touch for quite a while...if able to cure SBP...I think silicon implant I also will try...quartz is abit hard though
