The dog bited him!

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
why do you need a glove to pick up a fish?

anyways, good luck.

but it's just an oscar, go buy another one.

Tanx for your concern guys! I picked him up with a plastic gloves (the kind that my mother uses when handling food) because I tried to pick my oscars once and I got cut on my hands. He is still on the corner breading hard. I put some mefix on the water and turn on the air bubles. And just so you guys no he is not just an oscar. I had had him when he was like 2 in and now he is more that 10in and was doing gud in my tank till now. I know all of you guys have better expensive types of cichlids, but for me a broke college student, them Oscars are my Monsters for now.
 
that sucks, dont worry, around here some people go by sympathy is next to syphilis. hope it lives. would be kinda cool to have a fish with bite marks in it from a dog, give it some character
 
bit*

A rubber glove is probably worse unless it's brand new out of the pack. Who knows what crap/soap/chemicals etc are on it.

If you don't want to use your hands, use a net.

But nevertheless, I hope the oscar is ok.
bite*:D
 
he's from missouri, texas "bited" is a word there.
So, tanx and gud are also words there? :)

I never had an oscar jump out of the tank. So far, only fish I had that jumped out to it's death, are asian aros. That hurt alot!

The dog bite might be fatal. Dehydration for oscars could also lead to body fungus, because of the loss of slime.

Yeah, fish definitely does not have the reasoning capability to differentiate safety, and hazard.

The super glue and latch idea by guppy is a great idea. If that is difficult, you can use ducktape to seal open areas.

Good luck with the recovery of the oscar. Keep us posted. :(
 
it'll be ok oscars a very hardy
