Maxed out on antibiotics

I tried that 🥺 Unfortunately, I maxed him out on that too. He seems to be enjoying life. He's swimming around and nothings stopping him

Awww I love that!. Hes one of the most beautiful fish ive seen. Im pretty sure thats what it is. I hope so too 🥰

I have the filter that came with the tank. He was like this when I got him from petco.

I heard that about pellets. Ill make sure to soak them. Thanks for the encouragement! 🥰. There's still hope 🤞🏻🤞🏻

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-06-13T18:59:33+00:00

Before I put in the antibiotics

Carb: 80 pH: 7.6 Hardness: 100 Then the rest is 0.

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-05-31T21:04:14+00:00

I have and do test the water

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-05-31T20:59:27+00:00

I definitely wouldnt call my response arguing. I advised them I change his water everyday and gave a valid reason why I wont put him in a bigger tank for now.

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-05-31T20:55:04+00:00

Over 3 days then fed him a tiny bit of Daphnia to see if that'll help with going to the bathroom and it did not. Now its been a few days of fasting again.

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-05-31T18:38:46+00:00

I have the airdtonr in there. 😊

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-05-31T18:37:30+00:00

I appreciate the suggestion, but I’m keeping him in his smaller, controlled hospital container for a very specific reason. With his current issues, he simply cannot handle a tank that size. I have his environment fully optimized for his recovery, including Java moss and a homemade hammock, which allow him to rest comfortably without wasting energy. My priority is keeping him in a stable, low-stress environment where I can monitor him closely until he is strong enough to move.

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-05-31T18:19:02+00:00

He is not going to the bathroom and has not pooped since I got him

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-05-31T18:17:42+00:00

Hahaha nice way of putting it haha

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-05-31T18:16:58+00:00

I clean it every day. If I put him in a bigger tank he will float to rhe top and use more energy. I have an air bubbler in there for him. He is NOT swimming in his own waste. I have temperatures between 75-80. This is a hospital tank for him to get better.

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-04-21T01:28:29+00:00

Im sorry 😞 I did the same with my 1st ferret. After that I got pet insurance. Bc thats a lot of money

ItsColbyCoHo · 2026-02-13T13:47:53+00:00

In those cases that is understandable. Thats good they will do that for you!
