I Swear I Didn't Mean To Buy Him! He Fell In My Tank!

[attibones]

I don't have any spare plants, but I've got a tunnel thing that's curing. He just stays at the top. He stays and floats around the heater some. I didn't fill the bucket all the way so he doesn't have to work hard to get to the surface. It's just a matter of him resting up a bit.

How is Phoenix doing?

 

[attibones]

He's much improved. Friday I'll be buying a separate tank for him so he can feel more at home.

Excellent news atti, I thought the worst as the thread hadn't been updated, but I'm very pleased to hear Phoenix is on the mend

 

[Ch4rlie]

Good news! yay!

 

[Ninjouzata]

So glad to hear he's getting better!

 

[attibones]

Yeah he's been swimming about, but I don't think we are in the clear yet, as there is still a chance of infection. Of course, Poseidon received no damage at all, so I only have to worry about Phoenix. I've been keeping his water clean with total water changes every day (he's in roughly ten gallons) with a heater. I've been thinking about giving him a piece of driftwood, but I haven't decided yet.

 

[Ninjouzata]

The tannins would be good for him, wouldn't it? Or is it just for looks? I've forgotten

 

[attibones]

Oh my god. I just went to feed the boys and I couldn't find Poseidon anywhere so I checked behind the dresser upon which the ten gallon sits and I found his shriveled body. Why does this thing keep happening to me??? 0.0 I feel really sick.

 

[Ninjouzata]

Oh dear, Atti I'm so sorry!

 

[Blondielovesfish]

[AlitaConejita]

So sorry!

 

[Ch4rlie]

Oh man!

 

[Meeresstille]

Oh no!!! Very sorry to hear this! Was following this thread being so hopeful for this little guy!
