Eaglebarret Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 My fish take some food in there mouth and then spit it out, i have not changed the food, My theory is that it's because the temp dropped to about 22 degrees (heater broke) or they are just not hungry( i have fed them alot to fatten them up after worm treatment) Just would like to know some opinions. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted April 30, 2005 Share Posted April 30, 2005 What type of fish are they? what was the temp before the heater broke and when did you last notice the heater working? How fast did you raise the temp again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eaglebarret Posted April 30, 2005 Author Share Posted April 30, 2005 They are africans, the temp was about 26c before the heater broke and i raised the temp over a couple of hours. the heater could have stopped working for a couple of days before i noticed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchar Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 Hate to be the bearer of bad news, however I think that if it hasn't sorted itself out already, you better get some clout into the tank. Sounds a lot like bloat (or similar) to me I have just gone through this with my P. elongatus "flavus" youngsters and lost 7 of the 11 because I didn't act quickly enough.
