my carpet did a something wierd

[tworoads]

this morning when i turn the lights on its mouth was open a bit with poo coming out. thats now the weird thing though.

as its mouth closed up, it expelled a milky flow. it was like it pee'd cloudy water.

any ideas?

i have only had it since sunday.

thanks

I believe that cloudy release is a stress response. Did you do a water change after seeing that? It can pollute your water if your tank is not large enough or if your skimmer has a high load already.

i didnt do one, but i have a 120G now. i can do one tonight though. maybe 20 gallons? i can post a video that I took after it did that. that water is not too cloudy.

here goes the link.
