2004-01-20 10:58 AM flipping out about the fish Mood: Worried Read/Post Comments (0) |
Not much of entry today - fish did one of his "i'm dead/not dead" acts this morning. Pothos got worse yesterday morning and is now moved back to his small bowl for comfort. He can only swim in one direction and has trouble not floating to the surface. I moved him to his bowl last night since he was getting trapped behind the filter. Haven't fed him for 24 hours since the culprit is either a bacteria in the tank or the food. Now we are just waiting to see what happens.
It's the worse time of the year for him to get sick since controlling the temperure in the bowl is difficult. Of course that is probably one of the reasons the tropical fish did get sick - since it is winter. Didn't really have a nightmare about this last night, but definately a dream with an imparative action eminent -- Must check fish. Later: Pothos is finally able to right himself and is swimming around angrily which is a good sign. I think it was the food, so I'm off to find something he can eat tomorrow. He is still swollen but able to control his swimming more and his bouancy. I'm moving forward with the med's for his fins, to see if that helps his club foot problem. Plan to keep adding medicated water over the next 3 days and see if there is any improvement. Does look though like he is on the mend. *sigh* I hate that I get this worked up about a fish.
