This is one calm fish now

Well, the fish is really calm after all this adventure. He only has use of one of his two fins, but that seems to be OK. I tried putting him back in the tank, but he's not swimming around. He's just sitting on top of the heater near the surface and taking breaths. Basically he's in the top corner of the tank. Should I put him back in the bowl? He was moving around more in the bowl, maybe I should liet him stay in there. Anyway, he's in recovery mode. I don't know for how long he's going to stay that way, or not. But I really don't feel like finishing him off and having to go look for another fish. I'm not sure how he'll do, but time will tell. At least he's still alive and moving. Taking that d0uble tranquilizer definitely helped calm me down. Maybe too calm. I should have taken 1 1/2 instead of 2. Oh well. For next time I will know.

Well, I think I'm just going to lay down and relax for a little while, and keep an eye on the fish. He seems to really like that heater.

The fish is moving very slowly throuhgout the tank. Maybe he's in recovery mode? I'm wondering if I should put him back in the bowl. I sure did calm him down with all of these treatments. He's not swimming erratically anymore.

I think I'll just let him be for now and see how he does. I'm going to rest a little while.
