Incredible tale

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Hi Alberto, ermm that redish definitely not a good sign, may opinion maybe you should check your water parameter, changing new water perhaps? We all have our fingers crossed man. Good Luck Alberto!
 
Those were the problem... hmm she look weak..

Do setup special quarantine tank for her Alberto, i guess the tank u used to give her eat it possible to use as quarantine tank. Pls give her more O2 Alberto, but don't too much aeration, if possible put some healthy feeder fish or small shrimp for her to look after. You don't need another sad news man!! i hope u got O2 pump overthere Alberto. get some filtration for the tank and maybe changer 15% water everyday... just my opinion.. you know wut the best for her man.
 
Thank you torres for your help and care :). I need the maximum ideas and help to try to save this rays.

She was in a 1200lt with the male, that doesn't eat to (same problem, ammonia), some feeder fish and snails. Nothing more.

Now i've putted her in the sump of the same tank, 200lt sump, because it's easier to catch her and force feed.

I've done the force feed a few minutes ago. Everything ok, with no problems.
 
hmm i wonder on something alberto.... hit me up on msn later on... i got a idea that seems to be worth a shot :)
 
Well here I am with more developments.

I am increasingly saddened by these two Red reticulatus: (: . They are really in very bad condition (:

Here again the female. The force feeding process, with the invaluable help of my wife. Alone is impossible because we must hold it well.

The process is not complicated but it is always a bit stressful for my girl.

Is in the sump of my big aquarium because it is easier to manage and is more protected from light and people. I hope this is a good help.

The male is this one

Is very thin and so I had to do the same :(. It has to be. I will not let him dying of hunger. He can die of everything else, but lack of water quality or from hunger, I will not let!!!!

Here you can see the syringe and tube am I using.
