Eating Fake Rock HELP!
«

Hey all,
As you know I put in the fake rock leadge and caves into his tank
yesterday and today I noticed he was biting at it! I noticed that at
some points he has bitten through the glue and paint right down to the
grout! I dont know how much he has ingested, if any, I have taken it out
of the tank.
I did research and found out that it was my mistake! I did not use the
WATERPROOF PVA glue which hardens much stronger than this stuff. So when
I misted him daily I was weakening it. Also the color I painted it is
like a reddish orange which might have made him mistaken the whole think
for a giant berry or somthing. He has shown no ill affects as of yet, he
ate several butter worms and budias and is as active as ever.
The brand of glue was Lineco Neutral pH Adhesive
Thanks!

chances are he's fine. The color may have been what enticed him. But rule of thumb, if it's not digestable, it shouldn't be eaten. Leave it out until you can isolate and remedy the problem.
