Sorry I'm a bit late!!! Been on here a week now and realised I've not said hi to everyone. :lol: For those who haven't seen my posts, I've got one poorly old common plec (he's 13 years!) and I'm trying to keep him going! :)

By the way, this is a great site!

Not eating the peas, or algae wafers. Still bent. Have given him two doses of anti bacterial meds. Now got to wait for Saturday to do a 30% wc and I'm going to dose him with swim bladder meds as he's all over the place when, on the rare occasion, he does try to swim! He also sucks onto the side of the tank but slides up to the top. Anything is worth a try, he's no better or worse from having had the anti bact meds. But he's not eaten for over a week now, so I'm leaving the lights on longer to encourage some algae growth :)
