    Red tail eaten stones!

    Not a good ending im afraid. The poor little fish suffered from a prolapse. I had no option but to put him to sleep. He looked to be in a lot of pain. Certainly a lesson learnt. It wasn't nice putting him to sleep but at least he is no longer in pain. RIP Rufus :( Pic is after he passed...

    Red tail eaten stones!

    Good idea. It's the first time he's done it to be honest. Wondering if his broken whisker/feeler messed up his signals? Looks like he is trying to pass the stones now. Been constantly swimming like this for an hour or two. It's clear to see a bulge at his a hole Sent from my iPhone using...

    Red tail eaten stones!

    It's not looking too good I'm afraid. Looks like the stones have moved further through the digestion system. What can I do? He must be in so much pain. Sent from my iPhone using MonsterAquariaNetwork app

    Red tail eaten stones!

    Ok.. Thanks for the reply. Shall I change/ remove the substrate? I've tried to keep it natural (other than the plants being plastic. Can't have real plants with the Pacus)

    Large tank with cabinet needed

    Not to worry. I was looking as the place I ordered my tank and cabinet from (in Dec) have gone beyond the lead time by some margin. however a quick chat with the manager has re-assured me, cancelled my refund and back on track. Sorry to waste your time.

    My aquarium with some awesome stock!

    I did get giddy i must admit. I aim to keep the Paroons, stingray and Shovelnose as my priority. the smaller fish will be off loaded. I know that eventually the paroons will outgrow my next tank but will cross that bridge when i come to it.
