Ok so i woke up for school...and since i got new baby pbass growouts last night i walked to the basement and turned on all the lights...immediatly i knew something was wrong...my 18in silver aro was on the ground...i picked him up through him directly in the tank...no sign of movement...i move him back and forth for 10 minutes and finally hes breathing and kicking around...I added some salt to the tank. Im still moving him back and forth in the tank to get water flowing through his gills....He swims around when i let go of him put is very clumsy...Anything else i can do for this guy? or should i just go to school and hope for the best:confused:
 
how long was he out of the water?
 
The only other thing I can think of is raise the temperature a degree or two, cross your fingers and go to school.
Hopefully someone more knowlegable will chime in, good luck.
 
there is an arowana section? this thread should be moved there.

Ouch bro. Tough times.
I hope you had a good day regardless, because that's what matters.

Are you going to keep his skull/skeleton?
