    my picasso has something up with his trigger. its there, but looks like a bony stump. i dont know if he is sick or if someone got sick of him and started chewing on it. hes eating, acting, and swimming just fine, still the most active fish in the tank. all my inverts are fine, water params are good (had the LFS guy come to the house and check'm for me). i dont know what has happened to him.

    He could have gotten it stuck in the rock.They use that trigger to lock themselves in place,so Thats what I figure happened.

    I agree with Yote. Either that or he got bit by someone who is as aggressive when he stepped out of his territory. They tend to get in a lot of fights in the tank

    As long as he's acting normal,leave him alone.
