Possible RI

Today was cleaning day while I had my big girl out, I noticed I could hear her breathing. It wasn't a wheezing sound, more like a whistle kind of. There are no signs of mucous, there arent really bubbles in her mouth. Now she does have a bad stuck shed so im thinking maybe its constricting her breathing... What else could it be besides an RI? Thats the last thing I need right now.

If that's the only sign, I'd keep an eye out but I'm more leaning towards shed in her nose. Try soaking her, I had the same thing once and my male pastel had a big piece of stuck shed in his nose.

Thats what im going to do, but im so paranoid that I sit by her tub just listening for minutes at a time.

What are her temps?

Between 89-92

I'd just keep an eye out, and try soaking...with that as the only symptom I'd relax a little, don't work yourself up for no reason :)

I would not worry to much I suspect stuck shed in the nose as LGray mentioned. This would be the 3-4th post about RI turned out to be stuck shed int he past couple months.:P

Whats the ambient temp and has it been able to drop even for a night now that it is getting cold? One night in a cool tank can cause an RI. That's how my girl got sick back in 09. It could be just shed as she said. If it is an RI u will here a popping noise when she breathes due to mucous being in her airway. Also look for her laying with her head elevated, stargazing, to drain mucous back down.

Im from SFL, so temps dont cold. And I keep the temps constant so im hoping its just a stuck shed.
