take a sick fish to a fish vet and get a prescription for flagyl or something along those lines.

i want it just in case they get it!

ok. Not sure if you will find a vet to prescribe anything if you don't have a sick fish.

In my experience Tropheus only get bloat when fed meat foods, beef heart, marine mix, frozen bloodworms, etc. If they are fed on flake, pellet and vegetables you should never have a problem with it.

Agreed, provided they aren't overfed on any high protein foods and thay have regular veggies they should be fine.
