Huey, one of my DPs, has passed

Post by Boxermom »

The larger of my two DPs, Huey, has died. Dunno what he died from. Water parameters are all fine. Fromthe looks of the decomposition, he likely died sometime yesterday. When I got home from the hospital last evening, I went straight to bed. When I got up this morning, he was dead. Bloated, too, but that's likely from the decomp. :( So little Apache is all alone now.

Thanks everyone. Guess I'll just have to see if the LFS has more next time I go. I love the little guys, they're so cute.

I've been seeing DPs again at Petsmarts, so I'm guessing most Petsmarts will have them. Sorry about your loss.
