911 Help! Barb through head

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
STILL pounding beers...lol.

I think the stinger came from the male because her and the other female in there both have 2 barbs. I'm thinking it was a shed barb now though rather than an accidental stabbing. I'm pretty good at getting the shed barbs out, but this pond has a lot of surface agitation when the pump is running so I may have missed this one unfortunately.

She's still doing good. I hope she's pregnant.

And don't get any idea about the Spiracles guys...It wasn't very slippery in there and no texture at all. :ROFL:

Thats one hell of a story mike,hope she's alright.
 
No joke, glad she is ok. I would need a valium and vodka after seeing that!
 
So no entrance wound, that means she has been packing that thing around for awhile. She should recover, in my opinion if she was going to die it would of already happened. Let us know if she stops eating.
 
She probably sucked the barb up while blowing sand or something lol, that is why there was no enterance on the belly. This was a great posting, make sure you keep us updated with how she does. I think this is a concern for a lot of ray keepers. Great to hear you got the barb out and she seems to be doing well, best wishes buddy
