Within the last couple of months this is the 3rd Male I have fished out of my tank with exactly the same injury, found first thing as the lights go on. Big chunk taken out behind the eye, and the eye on the 2nd dead fish was hanging loose.
The tank is 48x18, Leopard Frogs, a few Guppys and a single CRS. Decorated with slate terraces, loads of wood and every type of cave known to man.
I have removed all the LF’s this morning and changed the caves and decoration. The remaining fish show no signs of injury but I do think I have considerably more males than females. There are 2 females that look ready to lay. I now have 11 fish.
It is possible that one of the slates has caused this injury and this has been removed but the fish would have had to back onto it.
So what do you think?
