LOL he might not be, some fish just look a little fat like that but if you dont notice him pooping, try some blanched deshelled peas or some epsom salt, maybe a teaspoon?? not sure really... its usually a tablespoon per 5g (or 19l). id just wait to see if he poops though.

i prefer glass but its all about preference. there is no health concern between acrylic and glass. lots of more sensitive systems are made with acrylic.
![]() the false door is to pull junk out of the bottom?? *shrugs* i wouldnt imagine there is a whole lot of water to pull it out with!! BTW there is a nice little 5g aquarium on craigslist in your area- http://montreal.en.craigslist.ca/hsh/711317784.html (im not too subtle am i?? ![]() (on a side note... my AC is finally on!!! freeking record highs though... this thing, come to find out, could have been fixed laast friday ![]() -ash

Don't worry Ash, I on it already....And I don't use the door on hte bottom....afterall I did invest in a Turkey Baster...when I told my ex, he asked if I really knew what it was for....I gather it has something to do with a Turkat and its body

uh.... yeah i guess its a possibility. eh, take 1tbs of epsom salt and add it to some water, mix really well. add 1/8th to his tank today, add another 1/8th tomorrow morning unless he reacts badly to it. the reason he may react badly is because it such a small tank.
![]() is he still eating?? you could see if he eats a little deshelled pea?? also, can you get your ammonia/nitrites/nitrates tested?? almost ALL illness in fishkeeping is water quality related. -ash
