Hi pal........

Last week, my favourite Tigrinius died at 14"..........she was okie in the morn but when i reached home after work. i realised something v wrong........her head region developed 02 high humps...............Has anyone come across the same symptom before?? this is the 2nd tig died in the way after developing the lump and gone within 24hours.

me too, have no idea where went wrong!!!

the 1st tig i had also had the same problem...............there is nothing wrong with the water perimeter.....my setup is running on sump filtration. Furthermore the rest of my fishes are okie.

when i discovered her with the lumps, i told myself she wont be able to pull thru tonight before i went to bed, she seems to be okie.........just resting at one corner and no struggling at all................the next morn when i woke up, i was hopping that she is still there but....

i have had her for a year........

thanks MFK for the support, i will come back with another tigrinius in no time........
