Hole in body

theSickness

In Memoriam
So I got an ORA Watchman Goby and after 2 days it developed a small hole in it's body near the top of it's rib cage. It grew for a few hours until I saw internals farther down the body. It didn't make it of course. Ever hear of such a thing?
 
Sounds like the cafeteria scene from Alien. Ugh. No. Internal parasite of some kind, and I hope to gosh it was in quarantine and not now loose in your tank and reproducing!
 
Always QT. :) Also, I can't imagine that a parasite that kills a fish in less than 20 hours of getting it is a very successsfull one. It was a baby from ORA so it couldn't have been alive that long.
