Hi all some of you may remember back to when my bgkf was ill and i cared for him to what i thought him being ill by might of become apparent that it was just standard behaviour for bgkf. anyway this morning i was down stairs watching the fish before i begin to try catch up on my paperwork ive...

yes everything is fine. hes now taken an intrest to the filter and loves going up the side where it sucks. gets bored annoys a couple of other fish then goes back into his cave as far as i can see he is back to normal havent seen him on his side like he was doing before i removed him from the...

also does he have a cave to hide from the light during daylight hours does he swim better at night time with the light off what are his tank dimensions and tank mates ?

its been a week now and ive just returned home from work now. as ive said before but worth the mention again thanks for all the help -reaper

turns out ive been using anti internal bacteria. (interpet) (please feel free to call me a glue pot) for some reason i thought it was internal parasite anyhow after staying up till about 6 am on my laptop whilst watching him swim around happily ive just released him back into the main tank...

update now that night has come and the only light in my room where ive set up a quarantine is coming from my tv screen my bgkf is moving around more as he would every night. but to add im now not going to be at home next week due to work commitments. i have seen him go on his side once since...

second symptom or maybe not when hes on his side hes not flat against the bottom. instead hes shaped like a boomerang so his bottom half is on the floor of the aquaria and his top half is sitting up

his gills appear to be in good condition but until he goes on his side again i wont be able to get a better look as thats the only time he appears to be in distress his poop appears to be small i still havent witnessed him going to the toilet but can only go by whats on the bottom of the tank

yes he usually gets food at first signs that food is in the tank he comes out of his cave to investigate and i always make sure that food lands close to where the entrance is and watch for a few mins but hes been coming out of his cave and going on his side which is what made me think...
