Is this Wellsi Going to Make it??

[GinaSofia]

So,I get this Blasto in the mail and the water is brown and reeks.

What do you think it's chances are?I've had good luck in the past rescuing ill blastos but this looks and smells pretty bad

There is a chance, put it in the shade and feed it if it starts looking better.

id say good chance, doesn't look like much tissue rotted away in the pic. hard to tell. the bare spots i'm assuming where supposed to be so i'd say it will be good just give it a little time.

Thank you.Sadly,this morning it was completely rotting and I had to throw it out.

I had some in the same state but sadly they never made it !!I tried every possible way to save them and i'm in England where these are very hard to come by.:mad2:

you should have saved the skeleton, a few or my blasto's grow back from a dead polyp.

I'm about to move and do not have a quarantine set up-it was REALLY fouling the water.

 

[rickbirdman]

you can dip it in a seperate container filled with water and use a turkey baster and blow off all dead tissue. this might help it recover from the dead tissue making it die faster.

Is there any way to save part of a dying frag? Thanx nicole

 

[rickbirdman]

simple cut off the good part and hopefully save the dead part and see if anything grows back.

I found 3 small Blasto colonies that the hermits knocked over that I had given up for lost. They all had new polyps growing where the originals were.
