Attepted murder mystery on a blue acara...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

hi, i had my blue acara added in my 40 gal tank for 3 months then all of a sudden, i found him floating at the top, upside down, no tail, all fins rip to sh*t and an eye missing.. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
i put him in my quarantine tank, ( i was really considering to end his life)
treated him with melafix for a week, his tail has started to grow back and so has his finnage his eye socket has healed. the blue acara is 3"

i was wondering, what could of attacked and done this to him? keeping in mind he was boss of the tank, he kept all the other fish in check he is a vicious little buggar, he even attacked the gravel cleaner :swear:

heres the list of what ive got in there:

salvini male 4"
salvini female 3"
black ghost knife 4"
lima shovelnose 6"
blue loach 4"

keeping in mind that the salvinis dont breed, there not a pair though they are tolerant of each other

if you think you could help that would be great :thumbsup: :)

hmmm..... **** u should make a bopard game about the... could have been neone of them.... got ne pics of ur hurt fish now/before it was hurt?
 
Are your slavini's a breeding pair ? because if they are they could be your answer. They like any other breeding fish can become very agressive when in breeding mode and if you acara got too close he'd get his arse kicked.

sorry about that, but i tell ya.. i'd love to see that fish all healed up with one eye if you have a pic.
 
Salvini are mean little buggers I would not doubt that one of them just got sick of the blue acaras crap. :owned:

It may be a cool conversation peice fish when it heals up on the bright side
