Fat Female Flowerhorn possibly stuck eggs
- Thread starter 4D3
- Start date
OK guys I have her a massage, she seemed to like it/know I was trying to help.
I held her vertical in the flowing water and gently rubbed down the bulge, first few times a clear/milky liquid came out, then it changed to orange, then after a minute or so it turned yellowy red.
Now the bulge has gone, she is still floating at the bottom of the tank.
People mentioned secondary infections, the medication I have available is:
Aquari-Cycline
Doxycycline
Blue Planet: Multi-Cure
Amoxycillin
And about 8 tablets of 400mg Metro

sorry for your loss of her. did any eggs come out when stripping her? The red/orange was probably blood and pus.
No eggs, just blood and puss. She died about 15 mins after I gave her a massage....
No idea why that happened, she had layed before with a male, I don't know why she died so fast

I showed a picture of her to a local flowerhorn breeder.... Apparently this was bloat...
It was the massage that killed her, caused internal hemorrhaging, metro would have fixed her up in a few days.
Just an FYI....
