Caucatoid Troubles...

["Phil Eaton" <peaton@hotmail.com>]

I have 2 Female and 1 male A. Caucatoids in a 55 with some Borelli and 
misc. dither fish.  (The same tank that several weeks ago had a "bug 
spray poisoning".)  All appeared to be well, and the Caucatoids had 
spawned again about a week ago.  Last night, the Male Caucatoid seemed 
to be very colored up, like breeding colors only brighter, and hiding in 
the corner.  His eyes seemed to be bugging out slightly and his lips 
were slightly swollen as well.  Around his eyes seemed to be almost a 
white ring, very close to the eyeball.  Until now he has eaten very 
well, and spawned.  There is even one of the females with free swimming 
fry in the tank.  Nothing else in the tank seems to be effected.

Does this sound like some residual effect of the bug poison or is there 
some other possible cause?

Thanks for the help!

Phil
