A guy I know has a yellow lab in a tank that he is basically letting die. It was a really good looking fish. The tank looks like the water hasn't been changed in who knows how long. He has sores on his face and stuff.
I kind of want to save it but it is a terribly agressive fish (or it atleast was before it started getting neglected). I'd be afraid to put it in my CA/SA tank and definitly not with the Discus. My quarintine tank has a discus in it so that's not an option either.
Do they make giant baby nets or something I could put it in until I could sell or give it away? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I live in the Mid Michigan area by the way if anyone is close and would be interested in it.
 
A 10 Gallon tan only costs about $10. You could grab one and set it up real fast.
 
Where would you put it after you put him in QT and healed him up? He doesn't need to go in with your CA/SA because of different requirements.
 
The yellow lab COULD go in your CA/SA setup (depends where your water parameters are).

For example: I have an African tank with a few SA fish. pH =8, water hardness = med. hard. It's this way because it comes straight from my well water.

Good luck. I hope your able to save the fish. OR at least get the guy to do a water change.
 
Thanks guys, turns out my giving him a hard time about it and his girlfriend laying the hammer down convinced him to not be an idiot. He's going to care for the fish again.
