It is actually was already a clean/sterile bin I just put him in yesterday! So I am 99% confident it is. But if it is negative or not poop I can always take another one to them.
Is Hewbie anal retentive?It was not a clean capture! And I actually just talked to them they aren’t 100% confident it actually is poop! They want me to wait to get a clean capture! Just one issue I don’t have all the time in the world to sit and wait for Hewbie to poop! I mean as much as I spend hours watching him!
I’ve seen Hewbie in the tank many times in pictures, but with her hand holding Hewbie, the thing looks like a small flathead catfish. He’s a big boy/girlA few seconds of this for the next week! He recovered from it very quickly and is now out and about swimming! I have to say he is looking and acting a lot better!
He is my big boy! At least he is a boy to me I will probably never know. It can be super difficult to sex them even on ultrasound/ct scan which I already knew. But according to the vet unless the reproductive organs are actually developed and positioned in just the right spot for the imaging or they have eggs. Sexing them even with imaging is difficult and usually not possible. That makes me sad because I really wanted to know when I took him to the vet lol. So unless he meaning she gets fat and releases eggs. But Hewbie will always be my big boy!I’ve seen Hewbie in the tank many times in pictures, but with her hand holding Hewbie, the thing looks like a small flathead catfish. He’s a big boy/girl
Thank you! I definitely will!
They are finger breakers for sure and I keep them very short with lots of shelled foods he also loves to bite at and break the rock. And I can attest his bite hurts. Thankfully it hasn’t happened in a few years because I can’t imagine being bitten by him at his current size now.
Hewbie has an ovary? Only ChatGPT could come up with this kind of hallucination.The anatomy of Hewbie according to ChatGPT!
And his color is back! However, I am seeing a few minor marks and what looks like scratches on his I think this is from having to take him to the vet the other day and being transferred from multiple containers and him being upside down.
He's looking a lot better - go Hewbie!!!
I am doing that as well! I just tested and none. I will say the monitor is showing a slight amount. However, as Jay and others have mentioned numerous times it measures free ammonia which is different than total ammonia.He's looking a lot better - go Hewbie!!!
I would suggest that you carefully monitor his ammonia, there's really very few nitrifying bacteria in the water itself (they mostly populate surfaces like rock and sand), and Prime is NOT effective at mitigating elevated ammonia, as is stated on the bottle. Just please be careful
Others would know for sure, but I believe StressGuard is more or less just aloe vera
Wishing you both the best of luck!
As long as it’s below 0.5 free ammonia (almost certainly way way below that) you’re good
I think I need to order the other food online my lfs has been on back order with the crab clusters for like 2 months. Ugh. I must say I missed him spitting and coming to the top of tank to greet me. It makes me so happy he is doing better.
