Got some new balloon bellies today!













Does she look pregnant? V^

The light tan one is Frannie, the pure black one is Black, the black/blue one is Sky, the FAT one with black speckles is Puff, and the orangy one is Blaze.

They are so cute! I like Black. He/she reminds me of my favorite Molly "Baby".

Yes, I agree. Does sound like ick. Do you have any ick medication? It usually really helps if you can use it. I always have spare medication, in case of an emergency, I highly suggest you run to the pet shop and get some ick medicine. Treat the infected fish and the whole tank in case they have it too. It might help to raise the temp. in the tank too, speads up the life cycle of the parasite and makes it easier to kill. Good luck with your guppies, I really hope they are ok.

I didn't have any
I had to flush it down the potty
I FELT SO BAAAD

Awwwww.... *HUGS* Sorry! Don't feel bad, you should only feel bad if it was suffering. You helped it by putting it out of it's misiry. It'll be okay! You took care of it till the end, you did the best you could do, and that's all you can do!

Oh, I'm sorry. It's always hard to lose a pet. Even a little fish. You did what you could for the little guy, and that's all that counts.

P.S Just for future advice, flushing a (live) fish is not a very good way to "ease her suffering". Don't feel bad about what you did, it would have been much harder for the fish to slowly waste away from ich. Just please, in the future, don't flush live fish. It is not a good way to dispose of them, and they die much slower than they would using other methods. It's okay. Trust me, I speak from experience. Maybe this sheet could help you in the future.

Those are good ways. I found that putting the fish into a bag with water, then put them in the freezer. They get cold and their bodies go to sleep from it, then they just, go... That's how I do it. Chairity suggested a tooth numbing med. to put in their gills, idk how it works, but i guess it does.

 

[Muffin14143]

Yeah, I have used the freezing one too. Luckily fish are cold blooded, so they just kind of drift off to sleep. I have never actually heard of the tooth numbing med. I will have to look that one up. On a lighter note, how are the new fishies? They are pretty cute.

Yep. Yea, we need to get out of sad talk! They are doing great. I've decided that I'm putting the blue background up though, cause you can't see Blake or Sky cause they are black! Lol... I amaze myself with my stupidity sometimes!

No, I forgot I had a black background up. Ha ha ha! The other day my best friend came over, and he was looking at the guppies, and he said "Hey! Look at Mamie, she is so pregnant she can hardly walk!" Lol!!!! Literally fell on the floor laughing!

 

[Muffin14143]

"Hardly walk" LOL! That totally made my morning!

Lol! I'm glad that made your morning! The other day my mom asked if I got her e-mail, I said "no, not yet" she looked disappointed, and said "Oh! I get it, you're too busy on 'backward chickens!" Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!
