That's odd he shouldn't be at the end of his life span he's only about 7months to a year old could it not be the angle of the pic? I'll put some more up now now .....I started treating with the interpet internal bacteria and he seems to be a bit more perky today i started treating it yesterday and his poop is solid white not not translucent anymore is that a good sign?
