:chillpill: a missing scale is nothing to go crazy about. It can happen very easily. Unless it came from a serious injury, you don't have much to worry about
 
she aint feeding now either, my water params are

PH 6.8
Nitrite, ammonia 0
nitrate 15
temp 27 C

i guess she's abit stressed right now...
 
probably just a little stress. don't worry

bah....missing scale....no biggie
 
yeah not that big a problem. my aro lost a ton of scales when i first got him, cause of my other cichlid but they healed in a few days. no every once and a while i notice hes missing one but then the next day its all healed up
 
woaw... i just found my plecos skeleton :screwy: ... guess this bring up a fight theory :irked:
 
hmmm, u'll prob be ok but plecs are hard core, they can do massive internal injuries from head butts ext....
