Angelfish haemorrhage?

562 Views 2 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  sewingalot
It's not pretty. One of my young angelfish looks like some of his insides have come out his rectum (for want of a more elegant description).

I'm guessing it could be a result of overfeeding - this one is very aggressive and tends to feed much more heavily than the others - but I don't really know.

Has anyone seen this before? What's the prognosis?

EDIT:

This post http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showtopic=228422&st=20 describes exactly the problem (oddly the angelfish in the picture has identical markings and size..).

I'll just isolate the guy in a breeding net and starve him for a few days.
Glad you found the answer. Let us know how he does.
