Hey Guys,
I need some advice, the large Temensis is upside down on the sand, been there for 3 days. I assume swim bladder.
It all started a week ago when he lost his buoyancy but was still getting about in a drunk fashion, 72 hours ago it escalated and he went belly up. This is not the first instance he's lost his balance for a few days before but never this bad, each time I thought he was on his last legs.
I assumed that it was old age and he was just going to die, 3 days later he's upside down but still fighting so maybe it's just his swim bladder and he can be saved?
My HMA filter clogged up so upon testing the water I discovered that the PH crashed to 5.5-6.0, normally it's 7.5.
I turned the HMA right up and flushed it out, I'll retest later, here is a crappy video cam pic I'll get some better ones later.
How can we bring this beast back?
