Default What can I do? My catfish swallowed the glass cleaning pad :(

As titled, any advise from the bros? I cannot find the other side of my magnetic glass cleaning pad which is supposed to be at the internal glass... Here is a pic of the one pad that is left...



I highly suspect is the catfish that had swallowed the pad as it is the only big fish that can do it. Am I expecting it to die sooner or later... any way that I can save it?

I'd recommend to wait if the catfish still behave normal, eventually will puke out. Might take awhile.

Some will advise pumping water in or use epsom salt or gut feed to force it to vomit. Might make things worst.

Most of the time, it lays on the ground not moving... but recently I will see some irregular swimming from it really hope it will puke out after swallowing such a big object...

It is more than 2ft and I doubt I can even catch it and bring it up for treatment alone... it is too powerful for me... so will just leave it alone...

Photobucket wants your money. Time to move on to another hosting site.
