Expert advise needed! cyanrina flew off!!

[RAV-65]

The mouth now close after eating....

[RAV-65]

hehehe....bro...

u might be on the foot of a new discovery!

Haiz... actually I'm more concern whether i can save it somehow.... it's really a nice cyanrina...

[RAV-65]

Currently de-freezing some frozen mysis shrimps... will try and see if the guy would eat again...

[Ancelot]

Really really phenomenal!

I just watched Andy Lau's sci fi film on End of the world. Still having aftermath linking your cyanarina to that.

wah bro.. u got one super chio and super rare cynarina... if it survives without the skeleton then would be one of a kind .....

Porblem is that it would float all ove rthe place... how to keep it down??? :(

[RAV-65]

The cyanrina is now all shrivelled up...

Tink it's irritated when I tried to place the mysis shrimp on it... but the shrimp keeps floating around...

[wa_lanz]

let it float here and there lo.. nice mah.. but gotta make sure it get stuck in powerhead or overflow la... haiz.. ur case really special...

Believe it or not.... found it stuck to my tunze this morning!!!!!!!! luckily my tunze was on low flow ( using ts12 with photocell ) as my lights were off.... dunno wat would have happened if the lights are on, the tunze would be on almost full blast!!

[typrobin]

think it will be better to place it back on the skeleton..because it should fit perfectly rather than a piece of rock with not-so-ideal contours...

[hamannbmw]

I'm stumped! the cyanrina really ate the cyclopeeze... as I was posting the pics, the food gone liao...

This is truly amazing.........how could it be eating without its skeleton..

I feel that robin's suggestion is a good one, at least less injury rubbing on LR

Dun tink it will "fall back" into the skeleton... will post a pic of the skeleton later...

Me too!!

It is still able to expand even without the skeleton...

I think i better go sleep... might be dreaming... lol...

The reddy does look healthy. and my guess is probably due to stress induced from strong current.

Try placing it on a big piece of rock with a small hole for it to rest. The rock needs to be placed in a very low flow area. Then continue feeding small and mini-sized food. Dose lugol's, strontium at the recommended intervals.

Your CR working, right? Then calcium will be present so that should do and we will wait and see in a couple of weeks' time to observe any signs of new skeleton?

As for the old skeleton, is there still anymore flesh at the mouth? Watch if the flesh is diminishing or increasing. Diminish...throw it away. Increasing? Good luck to the first cynarina Papa in Singapore Reefing History...

PS...Not the darling I passed you, right? Or the one from LCK?

Dat's what I thought... the water parameters are alright, if not the fella wun expand so big!

Gonna do as you recommended and observe the fella and will feed it manually...

As for the calcium bone, there seems to be no more flesh on it, so dun tink is gonna be a papa anytime soon... Now dunno if I should throw it away...

No CR, doing manual dosing...

This one from LCK, not the giant darling from your tank!

Another pic of the calcium skeleton...

Will be placing the guy on a piece of rock and see if it will attach itself, coz i tink it's pretty hard for it to attach back to the skeleton, due to the shape of the skeleton...

Another pic of tyhe skeleton :

[RAV-65]

Another pic after a few hours... Even BIGGER!!!

[diabolus]

lets hope that urs would be like the elegance....

either that or you just witnessed a cynarina propagating!

[Dispar_Anthias]

haha the is too eerie

How about using superglue gel to stick it back to the skeleton?
