Hi there! I'm really worried. I've an axie, almost 5 years old, and after a moth of leg infections, losing some fingers and some gills bleeding, my Rene had a Cloacal prolapse yesterday.
At the morning everything was normal. He was just floating as usual. When I came back at night, a big prolapse was in the butt area. It was transparent with vessels, and full of air, aparentely. See picture 1
I've started some research on what to do, and decided to put him in the friedge this morning. When I woke up, the prolapse was not as full as yesterday, and had some kind of dense white fluid hanging. I've touched the fluid with a straw to see if was some kind of tissue, and Rene was reacting when I touched it, so thought it was some sensitive tissue....
A couple of hours later, the prolapse collapsed. Now, is like a sagging bag, white. Isn't transparent anymore. And has holes in it.
At the bottom of the tank, there are stains of this white fluid/tissue. See pictures
Now, the tail is kind of curvy, and also the toes are. So he must be in a great pain and stress, I'M ALMOST DESPERATE.
Rene dosn't want to eat. is still floating at the surface gulping air. The tank is fine, clean water and nice air filter, the same he uses since 3 year ago, with all the maintainace checkings done.
I don't know what to do, or what to expect.
Also I think Rene has some kind of infection in the left eye. It looks white, when is ussually pink. He's a white Albino.
If anybody has some comments, or ideas let me know!
