Sick Convict?

[Eelzor]

As some in the chat rooms know (Some of you are never there, so you never get the gossip!), my convict ate a tadpole a while ago, and he is acting a little differently. He is acting more slower and less active. Is he already going to die? Or is it just a painful stomach ache?

 

[mostanks]

is he eating at all?did it pick the tadpole apart or swallow it whole?have you tested the water i'm not so sure the tadpole would make a fish sick but i guess i could be wrong,how long ago did this happen?

Like mos mentioned, is he still eating at all? How long has he been acting like this?

Tadpoles themselves wouldn't kill a fish if it was clean. I've heard of people feeding tads to their fish before. I've never personally done it tho. Did you get them from a lake?

ok, to answer your questions,

Smb&mostanks,

is he eating at all?

Like mos mentioned, is he still eating at all?

Yes, he is still eating some things, but not as much.

Mostanks,

did it pick the tadpole apart or swallow it whole?

He kind of halved it, then swallowed it whole.

Mostanks,

have you tested the water

Everything is perfect, its not that.

i'm not so sure the tadpole would make a fish sick but i guess i could be wrong,how long ago did this happen?

A few days ago. Maybe a week.

Smb,

Did you get them from a lake?

Yes.

maybe he picked up some freakish lake-fish disease then, or maybe there's something else wrong with him

That's exactly what I was thinking also.

he seems to be ok now. Swimming quite normally and eating well. so far so good.

That's good to hear. No more lake food for him tho!
