new addition
 
I ordered a Juv Emperor the other day, when I got him home I noticed that he was upside down in the bag. My Q-tank has been having problems with temp and one of the pumps so I acclimatized him in my refigium. Throughout the night I though he was not going to make it. He was on his side at he bottom for most of the night. I made sure the lights were off and added a air line. The next morning I went to work early in the morning so I checked on him thinking he would not have made it through the night. He was up and swimming! Wow, I called my wife from work to make sure she was keeping a eye on him and to get here to try feeding him. He is up and swimming now and seems to be eatting well. He seems to have lost most of a fin and his eyes are not real clear. I am not sure what to do about his eyes, will a healthy diet help clear that up? I have also noticed that his eyes have gotten a little larger. Could this be pop eye?

Thanks for any advice
Marcus

Sounds like he may have had some ammonia problems in the bag. With good water quality and nutrition, all those things should clear up. Good luck Marcus ! :biggrin:
