Urgent Help: green aro just swallowed two rocks

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Did you feed it at all in that time?

Nope, just hoped it would come back up...I figured it was too big to go down the intestine, so it had to come out the mouth....

Thats what I'm worried about. I've never seen him poop so I've got no idea how big it is, but I'm guessing its going to be painful!

Sorry to side track, but i have never seen my aros poop before - i mean gold fish style with poo hanging out. I have seen poo on the bottom of the aquarium before but never in progress

if it is of any help, my paimas throw up food when they eat too much ... darn pigs - never seen others do it though (besides catfish of course)
 
I've seen my RTG pass poop. Depending on what he ate the few days before, it either came out as a short poop that looks like a cable about 1/4" in circumference (superworms) or as a stewy type material (market shrimp).

yeah same here found it at the bottem of the tank but never witnessed it
 
Don't worry, the fish will eventually regurgitate the stones in due time, my Jardini swallowed stones on two different occasions and it was regurgitated with in a couple of days.
 
ur aro should be fine
