    Default My Frogs leg got stuck in a powerhead

    I managed to get her loose, but she can't use it anymore, and its looking rather useless. Is there anyway to help her? Or am I going to lose her?

    Any helps appreciated!
    Thanks!

    I love them too! I only have the two of them but I think they're a mated pair (At least I think they're the recent egg layers) So I'm hoping she pulls through too...

    Well thanks for the warm words, but she started swimming funny so I put her in the net because she had been attacked (or so it looked) by other fish. I thought the net would save her, but it gave her a spot from which to commit suicide

    you might want to put a little filter or a piece of foam on the end of the powerhead so you won't have this problem again.
