Pulling the trigger on a Mag

Cipro is a broad spectrum antibiotic, so it helps to kill off any bad bacteria that could kill the nem while its stressed from moving

Is it bad that there is a very very small tentacle on the bottom of the tank?

 

[xrayjeeper83]

Mouth open huge, slowly pushing out its guts from the looks of it

Stay the course my friend. Look for the turn around soon.

 

[xrayjeeper83]

Thanks man.

Mouth looks better today, very deflated though

 

[xrayjeeper83]

Think I'm gonna lose it. It has open so bad that I can see through the glass it is attached on. The only plus is it is still stuck to the side of the glass.

I wonder if it is splitting?

 

[xrayjeeper83]

Its possible i guess, never really looked at how they reproduce.

It looks like hell right now. I'll get a picture when I get home

Third morning

I have seen them look a lot worse! Mouth is wide, but doesn't look particularly deflated - keep up the treatments!

 

[xrayjeeper83]

I'm not giving up yet. Its still stuck to the aide of the tank so it can't be dead yet

Any updates?

He decided to go for a walk last night while I was at work. It still attached very well to the grate so I'm still hopeful.

Still looks like hell to me.

Day 4

 

[xrayjeeper83]

Let me know if those pics didn't work. I can't seem em on my phone, which is how I uploaded them lol

After the lights have been on for an hour

 

[AD87]

Looks rough IMO. Im going through the same treatment.

Would it help if I put a second small powerhead. I've got one in a 10g tank its probably 250gph
