i am stummped...i think i know the cause, but everything i have tried isn't working...
5-6" black aro...has stomach swelling...it got it after getting beatten by my silver aro of the same size...now at the same time i as the beatting i (agesnt my inner voice) added a general anti bactirial med made by API...to help protect it while it healed...i did this cause there was exposed meat on the tail...after added the last packet i noticed that it had expired in nov of 2009
...then in the next few days even after a wc my blacks stomach started to expand...
i didn't notice it cause i increased food intake to help it regrow faster and not lose any nutriants...it is in the same tank as my silver only seperated by a divider...i have been doing 2 day 75% wcs to make sure the water is extra clean...i am thinking of uping it to daily though...i had salt in just after the first wc after the meds, but i only did that for the first few days...i don't want to add more salt as i think that will stop any osmosis that it may help the process...
my silver aro that is in the same tank isn't effected...just the black...
any ideas?
