It’s not that deep but it’s not looking great? Should I worry? I’ll take him to the vet Wednesday when I can but anymore help from you guys would be great in the mean time
Not really.. looking at buying a tortoise table or making one. Going to get that sorted for her. I had no idea that was wrong or I’d definitely have changed it! Thanks a lot guys. It’s quite hard running a complex marine reef fish tank (plus a second marine fish tank with a Lionfish in) and...
