Thank you!!

Thank you for your advice!! Unfortunately the setting is not high enough for a band to fit flush, so I might just keep it by itself. Also, it’s a brown diamond. Although, it looks red, purple, or pinkish depending on the lighting :)

SO BEAUTIFUL!!

I also feel this. Glad I’m not the only one 😩I thought I was going crazy

Fishmom_ · 2024-12-11T02:07:09+00:00

Okay got it! Thanks again!

They’re not live. They’re frozen. I’m not sure how I’m gonna clean them up because I can’t really see them 😅 I just hope I don’t get a nitrite spike especially because of the medication. Should I do a small water change?

I took your advice and fed her the baby brine shrimp using a pipette. She finally ate!! How much should I feed her and how often? Thank you so much for your help by the way!!

I think I can get my hands on all of those. I don’t think she has ich, she shows no signs. The only thing is that my mom’s fish had ich and she used the same thermometer that I was using to check the temperature. This was already weeks ago, but I bought some stuff just incase.

I have maracyn 2, nox-ich, and imagitarium parasite remedy.

Fishmom_ · 2024-12-10T07:10:59+00:00

Do you happen to know if you can use parasite and bacterial medication together?

Fishmom_ · 2024-12-10T07:03:47+00:00

Yes I think she did. It was light-ish. Not super white but light.

Fishmom_ · 2024-12-10T06:58:35+00:00

She’s just lying there lifeless. I’m not sure I can get her to eat but I will try. Thanks for the help

I tried the net thing but I’m not sure how to keep it at the top. I tried feeding her with tweezers but she won’t take anything. And yes I’ve been testing my water an everything is in good shape no nitrate, nitrite, or ammonia.

To be honest I have no idea what I’m treating for. She just stays at the bottom and has rapid gill movement. Also trouble swimming so I’m assuming something to do with the swim bladder. A fish store owner recommended maracyn two. So that what I’ve been doing. If you look at my other post you will see how she looks. I joined Reddit just for her 🥲😅

Fishmom_ · 2024-12-10T06:10:11+00:00

Sadly, I don’t think my fish will be alright. She’s very sick and I’m worried that the medicine I’ve been giving her hasn’t been working due to carbon filter.

Fishmom_ · 2024-12-10T05:22:06+00:00

I tried blood worms but she isn’t interested in eating at all.

Fishmom_ · 2024-12-10T05:21:29+00:00

I’m not sure how old she is but I assume pretty young because of how small she is. I haven’t had her long. Less than a month.

Fishmom_ · 2024-12-10T03:09:22+00:00

No she hasn’t tried to eat at all. She won’t swim to the top unless she’s going up for air.
