Dropsy is a clinical sign indicating loss of fluid balance where there is a net influx of water. This is most commonly due to damage to kidney, gills and skin, from a variety of infectious and non-infectious causes. The prognosis for survival is poor.
In this video Dr Loh visits a pond where the owner is experiencing loss of fish that are developing bloated bodies. Dr Loh examines one of the goldfish showing signs of dropsy to see what is causing the problem
To reach a diagnosis we do a full water quality analysis and microscopic examination of skin mucus scrapes and gill biopsies to exclude any underlying disease issues (e.g. ectoparasites). We also perform blood tests and bacterial cultures to help with making a diagnosis. These findings are essential to formulate a treatment regimen to prevent the problem occurring in the remaining fish population.

When cultivating an aquarium, you are likely to run into a variety of freshwater aquarium fish diseases and conditions including dropsy. Learn how to treat and prevent these diseases so you can better protect your fish.
When it comes to keeping your aquarium fish healthy there are many aquarium fish diseases you need to be on guard against. It is not uncommon for new aquarium owners to be caught off guard by conditions like dropsy because they can pop up unexpectedly. Before you can treat your fish for dropsy, you must first learn what it is and what causes it. Often incorrectly referred to as a disease, dropsy is actually an internal bacterial infection that causes the bodies of aquarium fish to swell. Though dropsy in itself is not typically contagious, the conditions which lead to the contraction of dropsy can have negative effects on other fish in the tank if not remedied quickly. In this article you will learn the basics about what dropsy is, how it can be treated, and how to prevent it in the first place.
Symptoms of Dropsy in Fish
Dropsy is a condition that commonly affects goldfish and other freshwater aquarium fish — the symptoms of this condition are fairly easy to recognize because they involve the swelling of the belly or, in some cases the whole body, of the fish. In addition to swelling, some of your fish’s scales may begin to protrude from its body almost to the point where it looks like they might pop off. Fish that have dropsy are also likely to experience behavioral changes, becoming lethargic, hovering near the top of bottom of the aquarium rather than swimming around – affected fish may also lose their appetite. Some fish may even have sunken eyes or their eyes may begin to swell and bulge.
Causes of Dropsy
In most cases, dropsy is the result of a bacterial infection caused by bacteria Aeromonas. Aeromonas is a bacteria that is commonly found in most fish tanks but it is only like to infect fish that are stressed due to overcrowding or poor water quality. Dropsy can also affect fish that have poor kidney function, a condition which may result in the absorption of water into the body cavity which causes the stomach of the fish to swell. Although dropsy is not usually contagious, it is a good idea to isolate any sick fish from those that are healthy so you can treat the ill fish before returning them to the community tank.
Treatment Methods
If you suspect that one or more of your aquarium fish are suffering from dropsy, follow these steps to treat the condition:
1. Isolate the sick fish in a hospital tank. To make water changes easier, this tank should be kept bare except for a filter and heater, if necessary. The temperature of the hospital tank should be as close to that of the original tank as possible.
2. Create a salt bath by adding no more than 2.5 teaspoons of Epsom salt for every ten gallons of water in the hospital tank. The magnesium sulfate in the Epsom salts may help to draw the excess water out of the fish’s body that caused it to swell.
3. Feed your fish antibacterial fish food. You can either purchase prepared antibacterial fish food or make your own by creating a 1% mixture of fish food and an antibiotic like chloromycetin or tetracycline.
4. Continue to feed your fish antibiotic fish food and monitor their progress for 7 to 10 days.
5. If no improvement is seen after several days of treatment, treat the aquarium water with Maracyn Two. This medication is effective against bacterial infections and is absorbed through the skin of fish.
6. If, after ten days of treatment, your fish shows no signs of improvement or if it becomes worse it may be that the cause of dropsy is not bacterial. If the antibiotics do not work and the salt bath is ineffective, there may be nothing else you can do for your fish.
To find out about other treatments for dropsy you can contact your local pet store and seek advice from the professionals there but dropsy is a notoriously difficult disease to cure and other treatments may be just as ineffective.
How to Prevent Dropsy
As is true of most tropical fish diseases, the best way to prevent dropsy is to maintain good water quality in your tank by staying on top of routine maintenance tasks. Perform routine weekly water changes in your fish tank; changing out between 10% and 20% of your aquarium’s water volume. You should also perform a larger water change of 25% the tank volume once a month. It is also important to give your fish enough space in the aquarium – overcrowding can result in stress and illness. Avoid feeding your fish too much as well because uneaten fish food that sinks to the bottom of the tank will decompose and it may negatively affect water quality in the tank.
Peak Serum, Inc. — a privately owned and independent supplier of life science laboratory products — is pleased to announce Dr. Julie Moreno and the Colorado State University (CSU) Prion Research team as the recipient of its annual Cares for Cures Grant. Through this initiative, Moreno and her team received a Fetal Bovine Serum donation from Peak Serum — founded by CSU alumnus, Tom Kutrubes — in support of the positive impact their collective efforts to cure infectious diseases has made in the medical industry.
“Our Cares for Cures program is a tremendous honor and a cornerstone of our company’s charitable efforts that allows us to give back and partner with labs to help potential cures for diseases become a reality,” said Tom Kutrubes, President and CEO of Peak Serum, Inc. “Everyone wins when we support research to cure diseases.”
Supporting the Department of Microbiology, Immunology, and Pathology at CSU — home to world-renowned scientists and leaders in laboratory research — Moreno and the CSU Prion Research team have been awarded the 2019 Cares for Cures Grant. This research will test a variety of cell sources that are easily accessible, non-tumorigenic, and will eliminate ethical concerns making for a novel, translatable neuronal replacement therapy for any neurodegenerative disease.
