I would love to see a pangio eat a snail!

no, I don't know, either. Makes no sense.

I am going to have to set up cctv in the cold tank!

(andy, thank you, btw.)

I've heard many stories of them surviving winters in British ponds - and one of them being found in a pond by the new owners of a house. The pond had drained to a muddy gloop for, I seem to remember, some time and the new owners assumed the wriggling was newts. nope. dojos. not sure that they'd enjo...

that's an incredibly thin weather. they often come in in poor condition; I'm guessing at bacterial infection and it sounds as if the slime coat might be peeling off. small frequent water changes; get it out of the tank with the goldies in at least initially as they are yuck-buckets (technical term ;...
