yafashelli 9,540 Posted August 20, 2014 And it might be a good idea to remove the gravel, so that this doesn't happen again. These situations crop up often, unfortunately, and many of these incidents don't turn out as well as yours has. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

*Amanda* 556 Posted August 20, 2014 Very glad you were able to fix it and that your fish is OK! That must have been so scary. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Justin 383 Posted August 21, 2014 Awesome job! I would also recommend taking out the gravel. It's not unlikely that he has gotten it stuck in his mouth before, and has been able to get it out by himself. Nonetheless, sometime's they can't, and even if they can, it can be very stressful for the fish. If you use something like pool filter sand it is okay for them to swallow some of it, as it's quite small and can pass through them easily 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
