SOS ASAP

[BelovedMaui]

Hello anyone, any suggestions or tips, my 22-24" hybrid rtcxtsn has swallowed the tank cleaning magnet!!!

You could try to sedate him then take it out with your hand, I've seen it be done. Or take him to a vet

Hold the other half of the magnet by it's butt. Sorry, no help.

I thing joey has it in one of his videos when he does a operation, it might be a light dosing of clove oil but don’t try it until you know for certain

Dude thanks a lot I was able to get the magnet out successfully

Usually after a week or so if they swallow something they can digest they throw it back up. I’ve heared of them swallowing large river rocks and other tank ornaments

That's good to know, I had no idea what was going to happen.
