bwhahahaha my male dovii jumped out

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
hmmm there are a lot of supplemental water conditioner things that help promote slime development on fish. go look for some. i would add some aquarium salt and make sure there is a lot of aeration and gentle water movement.
sorry to hear something like this... it's terrible when a fish jumps
 
Best of luck, hope he pulls through. My 13'' oscar leaped out of his tank, while i was playing piano. He made such a thud i heard him across the house though!
 
thanks guys.
i'll take some pics of his damaged body, he is covered in pink coating (some sort of slime i guess) and all of his fins had turned whitish and dry, he even has some ants still stuck to him.

i've added some salt and melafix to his tank, now we'll see what happen.

oh yeah, i didn't mean to laugh when i typed bwahahaha, it was supposed to be a crying sound. is there any word that can described it better?

I had a synodontis multipunctatus jump out one night before I went to bed, my dog found it for me and was messing with it, I saw her and told her to stop but never checked to see what she was messing with. The next morning I found the "holey" multi all dried up :(
 
the sound you were looking for is :cry::cry::cry:whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa:cry::cry:. good luck man. best wishes hope your dovii makes it.
 
never happened to me, but i could imagine how much that would suck!
