Put epsom salt but without heater. I use ocean free paraclear and clear also. The recovering progrss take quite long. Be patient .

Hi bro. How long did u cure the flowerhorn? During treatment did u force the fish upright? Or just let it be?

I took around 1month to cure. I did force the fish upright the early stage.
