Clown Knife swallowed a cory cat

[fishnthings]

my 6" baby clown just swallowed a 1" cory cat... it looks like he got it down but will this harm him... will he be able to digest it? what should i do?

He should be able to digest it. Not much you can do. corys have some decent little spikes, that your clown may get ripped up by. Hard to tell. Only time will tell.

i hope hes ok, but it is kinda kool.

 

[fishnthings]

y in the hell is that awesome....?
would it be awesome if you could loose your fish?

The worst part of swallowing a catfish surely is passing through the mouth and throat... If it swallowed the cory, it probably will be fine then. Oh, predators can digest most tissues of the prey, including the scales, bones and spines. I bet it will be OK...
BTW, there's NOTHING you can do for now, just wait for the best.

Best regards.

Daniel.

if it is still able to swim it should be no problem is when they sit on the bottom then a problem can happen
