seahorsecrazy Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Alas, my male seahorse passed away today following an accident last week. He seemd to have knocked the cage off the end of the suction pipe into the filter and I found him wedged on Tuesday last week. I gently removed him and found he had damaged hi pouch and dorsal fin, but seemed fairly bright. But over this last few days he has become more listless and wont eat. Today when I got home, he had passed away. His Mate was holding him by his tail and carrying him around the tank - real cute. Word from the hindsighted one - make sure the cage on the pickup pipe is secure. It seems to have damaged his internal organs with the suction - having no idea how long he had been in there, I hoped it was only a short time, but with the damage it seemed to have caused, he may have been there all day. Farewell my baby boy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seahorsecrazy Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Thank you guys, I have to deal with a solitary female for a while, I think she will be ok for a while though. Will find a friend for her shortly. Hermy is keeping her company (the hermit crab called hermy - original huh) Thank you again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
