Help Green Brain Question!!!


Ok here goes my water tests good, I just bought a green brain yesterday evening from the LPS that came off the plane. He didn't open all the way up today, but I was told that it might take a couple of days for him to recover were he is stressed from the traveling and different water changes and a couple of miutes ago he spewed out this black stuff from all sides can someone tell me whats happening?? Is this normal or is something wrong.

Does it still have most of its color? Could be just "taking a number 2" could be expelling zoo.....just keep a close eye on it.....

Sounds perfectly normal. I too have one and it does this every few days ( that i can see) maybe more. I have a couple of clowns that love rushing over there when this happens.

Yep its opened up and it looks totally beautiful!! I think its doing a number 2. Also las night the crab was feeling around and it touched the brain as soon as it touched it there was a cloud of black stuff coming out of all holes. The crab left shortly after that. I guess that might have been its self defense thingy!!
