    Hi Robert:
    Since your discus has been tilted down for three weeks I'm guessing he has a swim bladder infection. These are very hard to treat.

    If it was just a simple case of bloat I would reccommend Epsom Salt (magnesium sulfate).

    You should try a gram negative antibiotic - neomyacin or a pennicillen derivitive.
