add a lil salt, turn up the heat to 85, and turn off ur lights... maybe melaflix too. GL

Also remove the nipper!

it was ur bichir. my friends ornate bit the disc of his retic as soon as it met the retic

move the bichir or say bye bye retic! sure enuff
 
it was definatley the birchir....not to give you any bad news but if it looks like mine did it will probably die....give it two weeks to heel....if he isn't dead by then you can probably consider him lucky....min looked like this after an ornate took a small chunk out of her back left disc.......
