update; crestie illness, eggs hatch, fish in community viv

Posted 03-04-2010 at 12:09 PM by secuner
iv now managed to get my fish pond sorted in the viv. its just a upturned plant tray lid with a aqua1 external hang on waterfall pump/filter, has some pieces of slate to create various depths for the frogs to sit on but also plenty of hiding places for the fish, they have moss and 1 plant. i have a pair of crown tail siamese fighters, 2 small catfish & a gravid guppy female. they get some hakari betta gold & a couple of tropical flakes.

my cresties had caught internal parasites,...

Tai & Salla left on sunday & im missing them but im sure they've gone to a good home.

lilly's infection is slowly clearing up, she's had to go on meds for longer than planned.

im looking forward to my new addition of a muddy croc skink, a species iv wanted for while. still debating whether to save a bit of my money & go halfsis with my boyfriend (he wants croc skinks aswel) or keep it as all mine?

learn something new everyday

iv always known the theories of how to get a crestie to open their mouths to check the calcium pouches but never been able to do any of them.
well, after seeing my vet try doing it to lilly last night, i though id try & see if i could do it. and it worked! it wasn't a continous wide open mouth like i thought, more like opening its mouth to bite my finger, lol, but i got a pretty good quick glimpse of the calcium pouches (which were large & white).

another trip to the vets for lilly

just took lilly, female crestie, to the vets. she'd been having some white gunk filling up her bum.
just turned out to be a simple abcess infection so iv got a tiny bit of antibiotics to give her.
