Clown ?

Post by jsn » Sun Jan 08, 2006 8:23 am

Hey all

I have a friend that have some clowns.
But here last week when he changing water, was called away.
And the tank stud with only 250 liters og water, it's a 530 tank
Then came the weekend an he had time to fill it up again, he did so with only cold water.
2 days after he was looking at the tank and one of hes clown was beging, to grow around the middle.
I know that there is only on ot two ppl that have clowns thats spawns, but take a look at these pic's..

And it's only this one..

All the other fish in the tank has been moved to another one, just in case she lays some eggs :wink:

you've left the other clowns behind, yes? I have to say I might be worried about dropsy - not that I have any experience of keeping clowns, but (s)he does look bloated. I think thta would be my first thought, particularly following a drastic change in tank conditions, not to mention the cold water.
