I Need Help!.....You will not believe this...

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
He is quiet this morning. Staying in a corner and swimming around every now and then.
Will change water and get a kilo prawn tomorrow, see how it goes..
 
On a positive, just now checked and he was moving around again. Might just hide in a corner for a while.
He is chasing the sailfins but seems not really making an effort to catch them.
Curious for tomorrow's feeding, will do that myself to see how he goes with it.
 
Well, so far so good. He eats the cleaned prawns, gets closer when I splash them in the water, can almost drop them in is mouth. Not much though, after 5 large prawns he turned away.
He is also ok with patting him on the side and seems to be looking better from what I can see from his head.
Will try to make some pictures tomorrow to get a better view of his lips and head. See if the wounds are gone.
Changing water now, pumped out about 50% and running a gardenhose in the pond to top it up.
Will try some prawns again later this afternoon.
 
Good thread,hope to see continued updates.
 
Well, good start of the day.
He was swimming around when I arrived, watched him for a while to see him settling in his corner again.
Then took out some prawns and within seconds after some splashing he was up waiting for them.
Ate a good hand full of prawns, so will try again this afternoon with more.

Looks definitely better, wounds less and colors coming up more pronounced.
 
awesome.... talk about fate. I wish my boss would fund a pond for me! Good luck
 
nice the redness in his lips are gone! Thats a good thing! Great job not releasing it to the wild. great job doing all you can to give it the best home as well. Respect
