Thanks guys! Is water conditioner the same as stress coat? I know water conditions helps restore the natural slime coat, but we also have stress zyme. I'll put in a little water conditioner right now, but I've read good things about stress coat. Sounds like a good product to have handy. Del is still alive, and doing well actually. His wound has continued to look as if it's mending itself back together, and appears to be getting smaller each day. He has been eating flakes that we feed to our mollies, we just break them up into very tiny pieces as to not upset his wound. We're going to try introducing him back to brine shrimp tonight, which I'm sure he will be VERY happy about.
And on the note of endlicheris…. oh my goodness, they are PIGS! Our biggest endli inhaled a goldfish feeder in a matter of three seconds (not exaggerating) and he's only 7.5"! The two endlis we have in the tank have demonstrated exceptionally substantial growth. Del would be second place. Tegeulsi is still really small, but we haven't had him for very long. The slowest growth has been displayed by one of our senegals. He (she?) was one of the very first two polies we put in the tank, we've had him for almost a year, and he literally hasn't appeared to grow! Not even an inch! Really disappointed with his size, which is interested because he eats a lot and is constantly on the prowl. I'm hoping some growth spurt might kick in…
But I'll keep ya guys posted on the status of the del, and try to get some pictures when I can. Thanks for all the advice!
