I have no idea. Did she just released some babies?
 
Yeah about 60. She’s gone all the way around this rock to get up here right below powerhead. She had been on sand at bottom of tank when she had babies and last two years. @OrionN
 
60 babies?!

Also, was there anything that could have irritated or stung it as it traveled around the rock?
 
Mine too!
If she was stressed out to start it could have been a stress release of babies...not much u can do but give good water chemistry and wait...hope she pulls through for you!
Love all the lil ones hanging around in that pic!
 
That is pretty unrecognizable to me.
 
I made the decision to remove it from the tank. It was clearly deteriorating. Hard decision to make but I can risk it fouling the tank. It’s only 25 gallons. If I had a larger tank maybe I could have let it go. ☹️
 

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

  • A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

  • Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

  • It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

  • It depends on how badly I want the fish

  • Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

  • Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

  • I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!
