I got a lil blond miurus about a week ago. At 1st I was really glad I didn't pay for it, because she was fins & bones--looked like death. I really didn't think she'd make it a day. She had only been eating GF & I refused to feed them to her. I soaked blackworms in Jungle parasite treatment & fed the medicated worms to guppies & fed the guppies to her for 4 days. She really didn't seem to be eating much, so I treated the water too for good measure but I don't know if that helped, since FW fish don't drink water. She seemed to be a bit more active & I've been offering her blackworms & earthworms for a week but today is the 1st time I've seen her eat an earthworm! She's filling out nicely & even has a little paunch on her now. After she's been eating those for a week, I'm gonna try to get her on dead foods.


Someone's really worm-obsessed!

Nice puff.. makes me miss my old congo... at least this ones in good hands and stands a good chance of recovery...

So best of luck PP :thumbsup:
 
Nice puffa, are you going to try and turn him red?
 
I don't think the red gravel I used for my red Congo is gonna get this guy red. She's been on it for a week & is still blond.
 
^ All good PP, still a good looking fella all the same..
