My gator gar is not eating since 17th and he is not active and when he is swimming, he looks like drunk and no any balance.. :cry:
then i've noticed some red coloration on his fins(like red lines) i thought it can be some parasite, so just added some salt and after some hours red lines gone but he wont eat. When i look after that day red lines again. So just changed water everyday and added salt after every change.
2 days ago he ate 1 piece of chicken lazyly and vomited it again..
Luckyly he ate 2 pieaces of chicken with help of some wood stick.(put the chicken on stick and when i close it to his mouth)
then i've watched close on his fins and saw 2(1mm-2mm) round blood marks on top corner of his caudal fin. When i watch it too closely i can see very little amount of blood bleeding from his caudal fin..
So what was that? Please guys i don't like to see a dead gar again.. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

I forgot to say that my 3 red-bellied piranhas got died 2 weeks ago without any reason and i saw they got redish fins.. They are on pellets.

So this can be a parasite or not?
