ARMATUS WITH "BLISTER" NEAR HIS EYE

[keepinfish]

I noticed last night my 13-14" armatus has what looks like a blister or a bubble right in front of his eye. Still eating and seems fine ever see this before? It is about 1/4" diameter and sticks out about 1/4", does not look like he was stung as the sheath is still on the stinger. maybe he hit the top of the tank??

Could be accident. With armatus, the moment something is wrong, they usually stope eating.

Yours is fine (of what used to be mine ), I have seen those blister several times on all my armatus, and they evetually go away.

Water changes as usual, maybe add a bit of salt and they'll be gone in no time

I still miss that guy...
