I don't know what gives. I've had him for 7 months now. currently swimming around eating no signs of stress but his anus looks terrifying. anyone know why this happens? will it go back to normal? will he be ok? BTW please excuse the white specs everywhere its debris :/

That sucks. Looks like [MENTION=654]lowbudget[/MENTION] strikes again. Fish date rape is a serious offense. j/k Check wetwebmedia.com You can even send the pics to Bob Fenner's team for help. Hope it isn't serious

Well if it subsided I'd wait a little. No joke it could've been a bad turd. More seaweed and a little less meaty foods.
i'm thinking maybe 2 sheets of seaweed a day now considering they do finish the 1 sheet pretty quick. but if it is constipation any ideas to include fiber in their diet safely? or simply just more seaweed?

Although they're omnivorous seaweed is their main diet. NLS pellets are also great as part of their diet. Wouldn't worry too much about adding an external form of fiber.

Thanks. So judging from what it looked like this morning to what it looked like an hour from now you guys think it's safe to say simply just more greens?

some people feed their tank broccoli... maybe that's fiber for them too...????


anyways... it could've been a bacterial bloom or infection in the culo... fish are strong and hardy... looks like it might go away... their anus don't usually prolapse like [MENTION=654]lowbudget[/MENTION]'s... since they have no muscles down there... just watch him for now on...
