Male BD been stung

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
RIP OH the highs and lows of fishkeeping !!!! Been there for sure Jim... Glad your taking it for what it is an unfortunate misplace stinger....
 
Sorry to hear Jim.
 
I'm so bummed to hear this. At least he is survived by some good looking pups (I think).
 
Terrible news.
His legacy lives on in plenty of pups and in particular a cracking pure BD son.


Happy hunting for a mature male.

I wondered about clipping the female barbs periodically as suggested by vamptrev, makes sense albeit a risky manoeuvre for you to do
 
Its unusual for them to hold on this long once the guts been pierced, crying shame after all this worrying and willing this boy to get better.
For what its worth Jim I have been there many times over the years, leaves an empty feeling in your stomach for a while but you will feel more at ease with it after several days and start searching for another very special male like him to do the job he did so well for you.

Really sorry!
