NOT FOR THE WEAK STOMACH!
A few hours ago I sold one of my females to a member on here, go to feed them their dinner and find the same female trapped inside a piece of aquarium decor - a piece that has been in with my frogs over 2 years now
She had struggled so hard to free herself that she has literally ripped off most of her stomach skin and severely bruised/tore the surrounding area. When I first raced in to get her I thought she was dead - - right now she must be in so much pain it would shock me if she made it.
Needless to say she now cannot be sold...but what can I do for the poor thing??
She has already been isolated into a quarantine treatment tank with aquarium salt and stress coat in the new fresh clean water....and put into a quiet corner for her to rest.
here is the decor she got stuck in - as you can see it is fairly rough/bumpy but not sharp
and....here is her belly - sorry for the bad picture but I was holding her in a 3 gallon container of water above my head to take a picture. The center of her belly has the skin completely gone - -and the red/pink surrounding areas is actually hanging in tatters off her
It's been hard enough rehoming my frogs and trying to find good homes for them - - but when one is finally found THIS has to happen?
