Well, I am about to give up on fish alltogether.
I don't know what happened... the fish lived in my tank happy and healthy for nearly 2 weeks, it ate every time I fed. Then on Tuesday evening after work I came home, fed the tank.. and he didn't eat. This was odd.. I inspected him and yes I do admit to seeing a
coulpe ick spots, but that's nothing serious, it's had a couple spots since I introduced it, and they all went away after feeding with Garlic. Well, when I woke up Wednesday morning... the flame was dead. I really don't think it was ick, as I had never seen the fish look too bad. I am HOPING it was not from the tank size , and unseen stress or something.
But now , I don't know what to do... all's I do know, is that I give up on expensive fish. I need to stick to small, tough fish. So.. please folks, can you give me some suggestions as to a smaller sized tough fish?? I like colour, and active fish. I feel bad... had I noticed anything wrong sooner I would have gotten it out and into someone elses system or to someone who could have QT'd him.
RIP little guy
