My aro is dying as I write this and don't know what to do. He hasn't eatin in 6 days and is now flowting head up and head down. He accasionaly jerkes out of control like he's being electricuted. Water perameters are right on. I've been feeding him FDkrill and flowting pellets. I have asked many people and no one has any answers. If anyone could give some advise.

Don't flush him; he could clog the toilet. Keep him in the freezer until trash day.

(When they reach this point for no apparent reason it is too late to save him.)
 
maybe you should have tried feeding him some live foods when he stopped eating after the 2nd or third day to get some food into him
 
Oh, wait a minute. It isn't too late to run out for some meds. Without any information to go on, the highest probability is it's an internal bacterial infection. The chances of saving him are very low to none at all. If you want to give it a shot, get some Lifegard All-In-One from Petsmart before they close. Get enough to dose the whole tank and do not move your aro to a smaller tank.
 
GET THE DAMN MEDS LIKE THE DUDE SAID. PRAZI-PRO HAS WORKED FOR ME IN THE PAST TOO. fyi
