My Leo is around 7years old and has impaction problem, he's not eating and barely going to the toilet, water baths and belly massages oont seem to be helping

Are you using warm water and doing it for 20mins?
And you could get some olive oil like 1-2 drops on its nose to let him lick it off and that will lubricate the inside of his tummy to help pass the impaction
problem. If you are using sand, gravel, tiny rocks or anything tiny and movable then that may be why or maybe some other reasons like too low temps,
what is your tank temp? You can raise it to 97 to help him.

Hope I helped you and good luck!!
