My 5'' oranda looks like a pinecone. His scales are ruffed up and he is hiding on the bottom of the tank. I saw my placo chasing him last night trying to suck on him. I removed the placo right away.
I placed the sick oranda in a 4 gallon backet and put 1,5 teasppon of sea salt and a bubbler in the water. I gave him some antibacterial food,some chopped garlic and green peace and he ate everything. He is swimming around but still looks like a pinecone. Maybe the placo sucked away his slime coat and made him sick. Dont really know why ...........
Any adwise what els i can do for my fishy
please help maryanne
