I'm sending out an SOS

[masmedic]

My sixline wrasse is not doing so well. He hasn't eaten well in about 1 week and now appears lethagic and pale. Is anyone willing to house him in a hospital tank and try to nurse him back into shape? I don't have a QT tank and unfortunately don't have the money to set one up either. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott Rejack (masmedic)

Linda,
That would be great if you could help out. I wouldn't make you come all the way out here. I could also get my light from the group order. Let me know if I can come by tomorrow and drop him off. Thanks again,
Scott

If anyone can nurse the poor guy back to health successfully I would say Linda is the one to do it. Linda you have a huge heart.

Re: I'm sending out an SOS

Update on the 6 line:

He spent the day yesterday looking "not so good"...then he hid behind the rocks. I figured out where he was hiding and target fed him VHP food and ArctiPods. This morning he was out and about. I put in the ArctiPods and a mix of other foods and watched him eat. (that made the Italian part of me VERY happy...Mangia! Hopefully, he will become more comfortable with his surroundings and be a bit more visible. His color is much, much better today.

Linda,
You are so great. Thank you for taking him and rehabbing him back to health. I may be able to fix people but when it comes to fish I need to call the ambulance for them! Good to hear he's doing better.
