Cielo Azul (Peruvian killifish)

[LooksLater]

With how she looked last night that is a very good sign indeed. Sounds like another tank is a great idea.

Yeah, he's going Ike Turner on her this morning honey...gotta get another tank set up. Might steal somebody's sponge filter just to get it done ASAP- the Ebi's, you think?

Thanks, I was stressed...I really don't want to lose this fish. Her right side looked kinda banged up too, I was confused at first and then yeah- it dawned on me that for her, that's a pretty big fall. Not to mention, she somehow made it across the counter and about 3 feet away from the tank on the tile floor. :sad:

I'm so glad we were standing in there and it didn't happen at night...

Glad to hear she made it though the night. That a good sign.
At her size. Jumping from the tank to the floor. Is like me jumping off the roof.

She made it through the night, I think she's going to be okay...but her eyes are both milky, almost opaque. And she apparently can't see very well. I don't know why that would be???

I'm going to rearrange a few things and try to get them both into smaller, (2g or so) separate tanks for now. I'm thinking her getting picked on by him might have been part of the jump and she's going to have a hard time staying away from him if she can't see. He nipped her fins a little last night.

Sorry to hear. I hope she makes it.

She'll hopefully pull through!

[mnemenoi]

She has looked far better, but she is alive...

[aquabee]

I know the feeling. How is she?

Thanks, I am super bummed...I love these fish.

Oh NO!!! Let us know how she's doing. :( Extra air stone? :-/

So the female and male both have been getting nice and fat, being good to each other... then she decided to take advantage of the tiny opening in the lid for the HOB, and went on a 'walkabout'- thank goodness it was while we were in the kitchen cooking tonight and she couldn't have been on the floor more than a few seconds...

GAAAAAaAaaAAhhhhh! Why....:aua:

She's back in the tank and currently breathing, but not looking real hot. Real still, eyes cloudy. G@*$%&^! S&*%! Stupid #$*$%!
Hopefully she'll pull through, cross your fingers for us everyone...
Maybe we'll sacrifice a cube of mysis shrimp to Neptune for her speedy recovery. Anything else we can do?!

Nice! I call dibs on some eggs if you get them to breed and willing to sell!
