OH NO! help please

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I know increasing the temp is the norm, but if theres trauma and swelling, wouldn't a bit lower temp reduce swelling and pressure on the brain? I would do that for the first 72 hrs after the injury. How's he doing? Sounds like he pulled a major headbanger.
 
My Jardini always died from bleeding, sunken eyes, as well as swollen head after two accidental attackes from dovii (which broke through the divider). I just performed frequent water changes and left it comfortable, without adding any salt.

It probably won't eat for a while too but don't worry about it. Just give it a steady environment and clean water. I doubt that your aro is at a worse shape than mine was. Mine was in a HORRIBLE shape and it still survived and is looking beautiful now again.

Hope yours will recover as mine did.
 
Thanx for the help guys, but he died this mornin. Looks like I am not a good Aro keeper like you guys :irked:
 
I am sorry to hear this.. i really wanted to hear you had good news... my sympathy to you.. losing an arrow is a big loss in the fish world.. i still think about my last guy..
 
Sorry for ur loss buddy.

You definitely did what you could.
 
Thanx guys for all the help. I was sorta Bummed when I walked into my buddies Fish shop and seen my Jar was no longer in the tank. They Culled him this mornin cause he was just clinging on to life. So I am gonna redo my 125, with NOTHING sharp to get hurt on and I am gonna get more Aro's again. I will get more than just one this time :D
 
damn man sorry to hear that. i just lost mine early last week to some anonymous cause. i was bummed out but i just went and picked up another one and its nice to have a beautiful aro cruisin the surface again. good luck
