something wrong with the jar i guess!!!!!!!!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
strange, ihave never seen this
maybe its scared of something. or water chemistry? catfishes are hardier, perhaps they dont feel the water and aro does
but then again, aro is also resilient and can tolerate lots.

hard to say, ifit keeps doing it, reduce water level so it doesnt hit its head i guess

he isn't hitting the hood much
but was going at the tank walls too much
now he isn't being crazy but is striking again

so you say that i keep a bowl of alovera juice and let the pellets absorb the juice and then add it to the tank for the jar huh
lets hope that works

Not exactly friend,

What you want to do is add the AV juice too your aquarium.

Peas are to be fed like pellets.

As far as your aro "freaking out" and hitting the glass;try some of these:

a. Blackwater extract
c. Turning off your light
d. Covering 3 sides of aquaria, leaving only the front for viewing
e. Adding a powerhead into tank(fighting a current)

Just some suggestions;GOOD LUCK
 
i hope he is alright..keep us posted.. i wish i could help but i thought only silvers were jumpy.. but i would follow above advice and let him have some alone time..

A,B,C,D,and E ...sounds like good ideas...just be aware that adding blackwater extract will make your tank water darker and decrease PH a little...remember carbon removes the tannins and check water parameters after adding ;)
 
mine got afraid once when i had alot of crazy guests... it might be the changes, does he seem to breath unnormally?
 
once in 2 days he is eating but sparsely
couldn't find alo vera juice anywhere
have a few of those plants at home can i squeeze some juice out of them and add it to the tank
does not even check the peas out
tried the dried shrimp and earthworms and chicken heart
only the earth worms seems to be working and thats what i am sticking to
shall be getting a few earthworms and try to feed him again today

and thank you very much for the concern you are showing for my fish Aqua doctor thats the thing i like about MFK every one is trying to do their best for fish whether theirs or others
 
keep us posted and good to hear at least the earth worms are working..my best to you!
