Emperor Angel health issue, I’ve had this fish for three months did 2 doses of prazi pro and copper , The fish is eating a lot I mean a lot like several clams on the half shell krill and sheets of Nori ,
The fish swims normal but occasionally surges back-and-forth after the first dose of Praze I noticed that the gills were opening equally unlike initially only one side was really opening gaining weight like crazy What does this type of shake I’m not sure ? Looks bloated or some other parasite? Its tank mates are fine

Since I got the fish it looks like it’s swallowed a ping-pong ball extremely fat in the back half but the fish will continue to eat a lot

Perhaps try not feeding for a couple of days and see if the swelling goes down. If it does not perhaps internal issues, any white stringy poop?

When you say surges back/forth do you mean shaking back and forth or twitching?

It’s hard not to feed them because I’m excited they eat so much, I haven’t seen poop in three months , and the purple tang I’ve had for four years and no watching poop either LOL when I say surging I mean like a train chugging and only occasionally I do believe it’s a air bladder infection
