It literally was like she was trying to kill herself (or at least knock herself out) in order to stop the pain. I cried a lot after watching that and I still cry at the thought of it. Makes me sick that I didn't try to save them sooner 
Do yourself a favor and take Kien's offer of help. |
Yikes... that is sad. In one of the books I have there is some information on euthanasia for very sick marine fish - The Marine Fish Health and Feeding Handbook. The book is at home, and I am in BC though, so I can't offer any more information right now.
Something to consider though if it ever gets to that point.
I got the book at Chapters online for like $35 or something. Its worth the read for sure.
