So far we have tried a fresh water dip and gave him epsom salt and still no real difference in his behavior. I don't see him eat now though which maybe because of the fresh water dip. We're ordered some Prazi-Pro and metronidazole from online but of course have to wait for it to come in

the joys of living in such a small town.

I will post again when and if anything changes. I've never had a fish survive this long who is clearly sick, I wish I would have acted quicker but I just assumed he was going to die at the beginning of all this.
