Dena Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Both sides of the upper back portion look the same. Hoping you can tell by the photo. Still eating and swimming. Just noticed this today. I've had it a couple mI the. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dena Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share Posted November 24, 2014 Nevermind, the fish went down pretty quickly. Shortly after posting I saw part of it's skin missing, just a tiny bit. My guess it was a bacterial infection. It was still eating vigorously when we went to bed, but this morning I saw it under a rock struggling. I'm just shocked at how quickly it happened.

FarmerTy Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 That's a real shame Dena! Copperbands are great tank inhabitants... they just have abysmal survival rates... they're so sensitive to everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dena Posted November 26, 2014 Author Share Posted November 26, 2014 I read that about them. I thought getting him to eat Mysis would be the biggest hurdle. He even survived ich. Nobody else is showing any signs of illness. Maybe I'll try again later. They are such beautiful fish and I loved watching him swim around!!! He did a great job helping with the hydroids (the fuzzy worm looking ones). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
