I have 2 young discus in my tank, they are about two inches at the minute but one of the pair has always been a little smaller and weaker ...
I hadnt seen him in a while, had looked EVERYWHERE and eventually after tearing my tank apart found the poor wee guy cowering stuck under an ornament!
So i fished him out (no pun intended haha), popped him in a bowl by himself (someone had bitten a chunk out of him after clearly recognising he was half dead) and currently he's sort of swimming, but not properly and looking very sorry for himself!
I've offered food, but he doesnt want it and am currently using a halogen heated near the bowl to keep him warm as i dont have a hospital tank or spare heater!
ANY advice would be appreciated, i dont know if it's exhaustion or whether he'll ill or injured or very hungry or what!
Thanks guys
