Very Red Neck On Bn Pleco

[techen]

Thanks so much for your help, I'll keep you posted.

Quick update, Today theres less red. Like he looks normal in the middle of the neck and theres now two red spots at each side inside of the entire neck being red. Is this a good sign?

How big is the red spot?
Do you mean spots. or patches of red on the outside?
Check to see if you can see tiny red dots.

I ment the red rash, spot, part has went down in the red colour. Its like fading away slowly. I just looked at him too and he has a massive poo stuck to him. It's quite long and it dosnt look like hes doing much to get rid of it?

They eat peas? Just frozen ones or thawed ones?

Just drop a frozen pea into a jug of boiling water for a few minutes. Let cool down and then pop
the pea out of it.s shell. Chop into small pieces and add to the tank.

Thrown a few peas in, Thank you.

Hope he enjoys them. Remove the uneaten peas after a few hours.

Good Luck.

My BN has been sitting at the very top of the tank, He keeps loosing his air bubble and pushing his head out to get air. He's been doing it all night and now all day today, Is there something wrong with my water? I've been doing daily water changes since sunday.

Preform another water change and increase aeration.

Any signs of improvement around the red area on his neck?

He died the next day after this, Not much I could do. I did water changes every day for him but it got the best of him
