Final update on Fishy's recovery!!!!
#1
I just thought i would let you all know about how my fantail is now!
I had a horrendous time with him and I can't believe that (a) he is still alive, and (b) that he is completed recovered.
I mean, it went on for at least a month with him first having swim-bladder (or at least something that was making him float upside down for days) to then developing REALLY bad fungus and lying on his side underneath the filter. He was in the hospital tank for 2 weeks in total and I used waterlife protozin (which i now swear by) and salt.
He has been back in the main tank now for a while and although the scales on his bum (unfortunately that's where the fungus was) still haven't completed come back (they are scales, but just white) he is swimming around more than he did initially! In fact, they all (Cod, Fat Girl Fish and Fishy!) seem much happier now.
So thanks everyone for your help! I'm sure that if I hadn't have found this forum, Fishy would definitely have been a gonner!
