So the filter starts making a funny noise, then i see a fish shoot out from the filter pipe (the tank is a Jewul Vision 180 with internal filters)....oh my word...surely little fishy cannot survive.....
After his experience the loach dissapeared into his cave... that was about half an hour ago...since then i have been avidly watching the tank for any signs of reappearance not knowing whether or not to have a poke around in there to see if i need to pull out the body or whether he has survived.
Have just spotted the loach, and he appears to have damage to his gill area - a little redness and maybe damaged skin, but apart from being visible shaken looks better than could be expected.
But what should i do....could the damage lead to infection and a slow death? Has anyone experience this before?
Any advice would be appreciated.
