Sounds like things are looking a bit more positive now. Fingers crossed she soon gets her appetite back and builds her strength up again.

Good luck with her good.gif

Well, she still looks like she's doing better which is great, and she ate a little bit of bloodworm which I'm SO happy about!
I'm so glad that I caught this early and didn't give up on her.
Even if this all turns out to have only given her only a little bit more time.... at least I'll know that I tryed.

Glad everything is seems to be turning around! I get so attached to them that it is hard when something happens. Please keep us posted on the recovery process.

Thanks so much everyone.

She's still fighting on. I don't think she'll ever be her normal self again, but she's not giving up.
Her tattered fins are healing up really well. There's alot of regrowth. Now if she would just stop getting in to it with the other girl maybe they'd heal up quicker. crazy.gif
I think after I'm done medicating the tank, I'll change the filter media. Put a new filter bag in along with some mature media. All the meds that I've pumped in to the tank most probably thoroughly killed the beneficial stuff.

I hope she recovers fully, I just lost the little girl that my blue marble had gone after. its so darn sucky when fish get hurt or sick.

if you are worried about the 3 still being "dirty" from past sick fish, heres what I do,

stick the tank in the sink, pour a blottle of bleach in and let it sit, then turn the tap water on as hot as it will go (scalding in my house) and let it run into and overflow the tank for a few mins, then I slowly turn the tap from hot to cold and let that run for a good half hour.

when I go to reuse I use a whopping does of water conditioner.

Well, she's still doing really well.
She ate more last night and yeah, she's just been doing great.
I'll be doing another water change soon and plan on stopping w/ the meds.
Hopefully she doesn't need them any longer.
I'll still be adding in some epsom salt though.

And yeah.... so far so good. If anything big changes, I'll be sure to update on it smile.gif
