Another Arowana dead.

[greenterra]

I lost my Jardini today.I woke to him swimming upside down.I checked parameters while the wife was holding him in front of a power head right way up.0,0,15 .Water o.k.He hung on for quite a while but didn't make it unfortunately.He did how ever jump last night for the first time so I can only put it down to injury related.It seems it is the season for it at the moment with Rallysmans Aro and now Miguel and Filipe's having problems too.I leave in 3 hrs to go away working for a while and I didn't need this just before I go.The tank looks bare with out him.

The last pic of him and it had to be like this.

I'm sorry to see that. It's too familiar of a sight.

Looks like a probable swim bladder injury. Sorry for your loss.

It may have been.I did hear him jump last night but he really has no signs of injury.He couldn't stay upright so we kept him upright in front of a power head for for several hrs but he kept going down hill.He was swimming perfectly the night before so it was pretty sudden.

Yes he was a great tankmate.He never touched the others and they never touched him.They were all going into a new tank soon as this one will become the Dovii tank.I don't think I will get another for now.Will set up the bigger tank and try again.Fingers crossed I can find another Jardini that is as easy going as this one was.I know to well all the horror stories out there but this guy was so calm and truely never showed aggression.
