Senior Reefer yikai Posted February 28, 2010 Senior Reefer Share Posted February 28, 2010 i can't believe you're even asking this question. your fish is trapped and going to die and you can still ask if you should rescue it? GO RESCUE IT. how could you bear to watch a trapped fish suffer while you sit and think if you should do anything? its quite obvious don't you think? at the same time, get rid of the bioballs, find a way to prevent fishes from getting trapped, and always rescue them! you're really heartless. the poor fish trap there for 2 weeks and only now then you decide to do something about it. and your definition of do something is ask if you should rescue it? because of some bioballs in your way. i'm sorry if i sound harsh but this is the epitome of bad reefing. i hope you don't keep this up. even if you dont like the fish, at least have the decency to save it first then decide on the course of action. and i don't mean ending its life. please. i hope you understand that i'm not picking on you. but you should never do this again. and i hope you develop some common sense and compassion, otherwise, this hobby isnt for you. okay bro?

jackywongto Posted February 28, 2010 Share Posted February 28, 2010 just spend some time and remove the bioballs. get the fish out then put it back. Should not really take that long anyway.
