REGARDING MY PACU: I need some help Please, 15 hours ago my filter started making noise (just a air bubble) and my husband unplugged it! He didn't tell me!!!! I came home went to bed and this morning my Pacu is off color with his bottom lip all swollen and sticking straight out! he is swimming ok. right away I drained 30% refilled and drained 30% again. I also put the big canister filter back in with fresh charcoal and turned the millennium 3000 back on. (This is my fault! I didn't want to go to Salem to get more charcoal 2 days ago so I took the canister filter out and let the 3000 run until I could go get some charcoal. I have run just the millennium 3000 for a week alone before no problem. But with no backup my poor fish is now suffering!! Can anyone tell me if he will be ok? Will his lip go back in?
He is 23 inches long and I have him in a 100 gal tank alone. extra clean fish keeper. 20 percent water changes weekly and run a magnum and a millennium 3000. (yes I know it's too small. We are building a giant tank outside for him. I live in a trailer and the structure can't take a bigger tank. no I didn't buy this fish some other dummy with a 45 gal tank bought the fish at Wal-Mart. I rescued him 5 years ago from the 45 gal ) I can't find him a better home. We can't finish the 2000 gal tank until summer. I don't need yelled at I just need to know if Enzo is going to be ok or should I put him down.
