So, I changed the water in the fish tank tonight after work. It looked very dirty, and murky, so I decided to do it. I'm pretty tired so I'll keep this brief. I did what I usually do, wipe down the walls, the plant, the fish house, and the heater. The heater right now I am not sure if it's working. Anyway, if it's broken I'll get a new one, return it or use the warranty.
Anyway, what I did differently this time for the fish is that I put him in a cup and gradually added some of the new water to the cup. I didn't do this exactly right, but well enough I believe that it worked. This time, when I put the fish back in the tank, he wasn't swimming around in jerky movements, instead, it was pretty smooth for him. So he seems to be really happy with his new water. He ate some pellets, too, in the new water, which is a good indication.
So overall, I think the fish is doing good after this water change. Much better thank the last one. More updates will follow, stay tuned.

You should seek medical attention instead of taking your frustrations out on a fish. Using your mental condition to justify your abusive behaviour is the most irresponsible thing one can do to both the fish and yourself.
ReplyDeleteWish you luck.
While, I'm not disagreeing with you, I doubt this person will ever see your comment. The last post on this blog was in 2010.
DeleteI encountered this blog when searching for information for my project. My project is about preventing fish abuse and neglect. Most people don't realize that fish get abused purposely. In fact, I'd say most pet fish deaths are a result of ignorance. But this is one of the more serious cases I have read about so far.
