6line wrasse down!

[Louie3]

Ok i was freaked out durring regualr maintence of my tank, i just took out the filter tube out of the water, and while i was gone cleaning it in just a couple of seconds i heard this loud sound from the filter! i looked all around the tank and it was the wrasse! i was able to save him, his kind of curved with any bulgy but breathing! i put him in the quaratine.

my question is should i just flush him or let him try to recover? :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry :cry

his kind of curved with any bulgy but breathing

What???
See if he recovers, if he is just suffering put him in a ziploc and put him in the freezer, that way he dies fast, not in the sewer

his body was shaped like the letter U and his eye was huge. but his body is back to normal execpet for his eye. if i put him in the ziploc, do i do it with or with out water?

[cpreefguy]

are you sure he is going to die?
If so, w/o water

[Louie3]

he's flipped up side down:( but breathing

[cpreefguy]

Lets have a momment of silence for my copperband. He was taken away from me by.... the filter

Gotta watch out for that filter

[Louie3]

i know he's evil but pretty darn good

with water would be more humane IMO, because without water, the fish dies of suffocation bassically, but with his tank water in a bag, the water cools down, and shuts down his systems, and supposedly the fish dosent really feel anything... but who really knows...

I put him to rest with a little bit of his water.
