Heres a pic of my scomb ive had for about 2 months. I know theyre known for randomly dropping dead, but at the time my tank was ready for a fish there were no payara tats in sight!
A couple weeks later i visited my LFS and saw the scomb in a tank with a GATF, large arowana, RTC, and some more big fish. The guy was only 4in... the other fish were huge. Although i knew the fish was stressed cause it was hiding in the corner of the tank from the other fish, i picked it up anyways... with no regrets!
I've included pics below.
Btw can someone tell me whats up with his eye? I actually bought it like that but didnt notice it till i was home. It was actually worse when i picked it up but for the two months its only healed a little bit. Im guessing it's from ramming into the decorations they had in the LFS tank trying to get away from the bigger fish.
Sorry for the cellphone pics :/
Thanks!
