Title: Electric Yellow Lab recessed stomach
Post by: PowerCerg One on September 21, 2012, 02:36:11 PM

The Electric Yellow Lab I picked up at the Oyers' seems to have a recessed stomach. It seems to be eating just fine, but I'm kinda worried about it.

If it's a smaller one, it was likely losing the battle for food.  Try moving it to a separate tank and feed it frequently to fatten it up.

He's one of the bigger ones in the tank and I thought that at first. I made sure to watch and he is getting food.
