i heard a splash and a thump and now one of my sens is death rolling and thrashing around the tank.. his hit the surface twice in the time it took me to type this..

*takes pics*

now hes got a dent on the top of his head and hes just sorta laying on the bottom of the tank...

wtf

hes been acting/looking/eating fine.. i got to spend a few hours tonight just watching the tanks tonight so i would have noticed if he had been acting up..

hes about 7" or so.. with the exception of an ornate (8") hes one of the 3 biggest fish in the tank (another sen and a del are about the same size).. only other fish in the tank are 3 small thinbars and a 5" african arowana..


he fliped/rolled around the tank a few times and then was laying on his back in the corner the whole time i typed this.. now hes just sorta sitting in his spot breathing a bit hard... the 2 other sens are looking at him in what i can only guess is a concerned manner.. theres definitely a sunken spot where the black/grey spot is on the top of his head.. the 2 other sens have a bit of a bump there...

now hes swiming rather spasticly again... ive never had a fish that small hit the lids (egg crate) that hard before without losing a chunk of something..








and yes.. im aware of the snail "issue"
 
well this morning hes still alive... the top of his head looks bruised and hes a bit groggy in his movements...

who knows...
 
wow thats goota suck!hope he gets better!
 
Damn he must have been spooked. Sorry to hear about that Chester :(
 
Sorry to hear that Chester! Hope it gets better soon. Poor Sen knocked itself senseless! :( Next time, don't let him see your avatar! :grinno:

just wait till i get around to resizing the .gif it came from... its amazing

so far the sen is hangin in there... hes still takin it easy but so far he looks to be recovering... the tank got a guppy treat tonight.. the sen in question has always been more of a night time hunter.. so we will see if he "gets his blimp on" tonight and hides out at the top...
 
well... the sen has continued to be a bit "off"... however tonight he was straight up deathrolling around the tank... i got video its pending on youtube at the moment.. its rather long and has me (half drunk) and jim (bad reverend notdrunk) chattering in the background... so needless to say the video is not safe for little ears....

halfdrunk video will be up once it finnishes
