 | Dead T. Duboisi |
milkyboy Hobbyist Posts: 88 Kudos: 81 Votes: 4 Registered: 03-Dec-2005   | I woke up this morning to find one of my T.Duboisis dead trapped between 2 rocks. Is it possible that he got trapped there and that's how he died? Milkyboy |

If you have any water movement in your tank, it is probable that the water movement moved him to that spot. If the fish is not too decomposed, you may want to examine his gills, fins and body for possible symptoms of what weakened and killed him. __________ "To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research." researched from Steven Wright |

Is it possible thatit was still stressed ou? Last edited by Megil Tel'Zeke at 30-Dec-2005 15:35  |

| milkyboy Hobbyist Posts: 88 Kudos: 81 Votes: 4 Registered: 03-Dec-2005 | Ok, I've had them a couple of months. There is only the back of the tank that has the current, the rest is fine and smooth. Milkyboy |

chelaine  Big Fish Posts: 383 Kudos: 343 Votes: 78 Registered: 23-Jul-2005  | yeah i think if the fish was good and healthy and somehow got swept between the two rocks, he would for sure flail about a little to get unstuck... if the rocks worry you that much, maybe you should move em apart a little? sounds to me that the fish died before the rock incident. *Chelle* I love the fishes cuz they're SOOO delicious... |
