interesting solution... but just feel it's pretty risky as not many aro able to stay claim... and also rubbing part might accidental lead to more problem...
but overall is still a very good info sharing.. thanks...

very true ... if one doesn't fully understands what he/she is doing, accidents may very easily happen that may lead to more problems, but then again that holds true for any kind of OP one chooses to perform on the aro...

before conducting any kind of OP, owner must weigh out all the pros & cons to see if the risk, if any, is worth it to go ahead with the OP.

u'd be surprised to see how fast they get tired. but pls note it will take longer if aro is not cooperating or getting freaked. in which case you'll have to tame it a little bit first or just don't chase it all the way from one end to another.

gently chase half way and let your aro swim to the opposite end, then start from opposite end and chase again till half way only. repeating this process until your aro is familiar with the routine then u could speed it up a little bit. purpose here is to pace the chase so the aro will make its way from one end of tank to another WITHOUT banging. making fast turns okay, but banging NO!

Bro rumraisin,

Thx 4 sharing of the useful information.

I had already heard this method at few years ago. The fish shop in Hong Kong told me that some experience hobbyist were using such kind of method.

bro, thnx for speaking up... at least now ppl know that this chase-&-massage method is not something i made up!

actually, the shifu that taught me this was a Thai-Chinese, so i'm sure many ppl have come across this method before... just dont understand why no one comes forward to talk about it. anywho the worms have been let out of the can (is that how the phrase goes??? ) now, there's at least one more 'well-kept' solution offered to solving an old-time problem.
