So, this was my favorite mag. Infection was passed to him from 4 new mags I bought. He's been in HT for about 4 weeks now.
I've never seen this happen and wanted to share some documentation. Most Magnifica get sick and either respond to treatment or die. This guy actually responded at first and was about to go back to DT and suddenly took a turn for the worst. I have no idea why. Weirdest thing I've ever encountered. He's lost all his tentacles and his mouth is continuously gaping. I've tried a lot of different meds with no response. I've tried no meds. He's been in DT when no others were in there. He's had light and darkness and high flow, low flow, and no flow. He's been fed. He's had DT water and fresh mixed 1-2 days aged, but nothing helps. Incredibly, he's managed to survive! I hope I don't loose him. He's not getting any worse, but not getting better either. I'm starting to think that maybe he shed his tentacles and is fixing to turn into a butterfly. Ha Ha....
I'll keep you guys updated and let you know if he survives. :deadhorse1:
