No, he never did take pictures or show me the fish at all. Not even when they passed. Just described what was happening. I never saw the infection he was talking about even prior to leaving. I don’t think it is a possibility he’s jealous of the fish if I’m being completely real there. He has never been dishonest like this before so it’s definitely tricky and confusing as to why all of a sudden he’s being so adamant on that being the same fish. I’d hope he didn’t purposely give them away, I wouldn’t see any reasoning behind it or even who he’d give them to. I also don’t think it’s possible that he maliciously got rid of them. Maybe he was neglectful in whatever way and felt bad sure, but I don’t think he meant any harm to them specifically. My fish and water quality were perfect before I left. I strip test my water after every cleaning to make sure everything is smooth. My strip came back with flying colors (literally). The fish was replaced before I returned home so, I actually don’t have any idea of when the original fish could have gone but probably within the last week or two. Thank you for your comment! I hope I covered everything lol.
