    clown with clowdy eye...

    thats a good med, i used it for my niger trigger, most of the time they will get that clowdy eye from an injury, like the triggers allways try to get into a "cave" in a piece of liverock, and wind up scraping their eye, i used the same med and he healed up just fine, all is well now, good...

    Blus Jaw - Lion fight?

    try turning off the lights for a while, as long as possible, hopefully this will calm him down and hopefully he didnt get tagged by the lion, my lion tagged my clown trigger and he died within 12 hrs or so, it wasnt pretty either !! good luck !!!!
