New Double-Tail Male Rescue!!!

[Hermitpaws]

Some lady came in to petco, with a double-tail in a little tub-aware bowl when i was shopping for guinea pig supplies, and Claimed she found it in her sons closet, who left for collage 3 months ago and didn't know what to do.
to make a long story short, i end up taking the little Starving guy home!!
Here some pic of him and i named him Charcoal ( just to let all the kids reading this know, there is such thing as White Charcoal)

Sorry these where the only 2 good photos i could get( didn't want to scare him)Little guys in prefect shape too.

He was probably eating the fly larva from the flies she said that were in hes room. sorry didn't mention that earlier.

Also hes now in a 2 gallon kridder keeper with 3 plants and some black rock,
I didn't have money for a filter. probably won't till next month.

Wow!! What a survivor! So cool! Haha, I bet that mom had a talk with her son after that!

What a lovely little fish! Congrats on giving him a nice home. I hope that lady gave her son a good scolding for mistreating an animal.

Kudos to her for bringing it in to the store. Double kudos to you for taking him home and caring for him. He's a cutie.

thanks guys. he has trouble turning right for some reason ( i think it's his big fins) but over-all hes great!

[doggyhog]

Wow!!! Now THAT is a rescue!

He could have trouble turning because he spine looks the teensiest bit crooked. It's a double tail thing. Common in double tails. He will be fine, just watch that he doesn't get too much food as it could make him prone to SBD.

Wow!! Thats the most handsome rescue I've ever seen!
