My albino oscar developed a swell on the side abdomen. The swell is about1.5" in diameter and 0.25" high. It appeared laste tuesday (7, september). On saturday the fish appeared to be dying, but today he started to eat again. He is about 6 years old. Anybody knows what it can be? and how can I treat him? He is "married" for 4 years with an wild female that was caught in south Pantanal in June 1994, and the pair have given me some thousands of babies through these years (half of them albinos). Thanks for any advice, Zeco ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@listbox.com.
