Well, FISH struggles in the Talley household. We were so excited (my hubby more than myself) about getting a cool fish tank with awesome decorations and some sweet fish. We have had it for about a week now. The first few days the fish were good! Then, yesterday something started going wrong. The black moore goldfish we got has clouded eyes and white fungus on it. So, my hubby went to the pet store and at first he was told he had ick! So, he went and got him treatment for that and nothing. Then he went to another pet store and they said it was fungus. So we got more treatment and put that in the tank. I think the fish is going to live...who knows. It's eyes are still clouded over and the white fungus looking stuff is still there, but he's acting somewhat normal.
So, somewhat happy that we may have saved his life I decided to play video games and I look over at the tank and one of the other fish, who was completely fine by the way, is DEAD!! What the hell is going on here? We have changed the water, did the treatments, haven't overfed them, and they are dropping like flies it seems. Who would have known having a fricken fish tank would be so much trouble? We just want some damn fish to look at and watch swim, ya know? They are so temper mental, even goldfish! If the PH is too high, they get stressed. If there are too many fish in the tank, they get stressed. If the ammonia in the tank is too high, they get stressed. If the water is too cold or too warm, stressed. If the fish around them swim too fast...you guessed it, they get stressed! GEESH!! Really? They are more temper mental than a baby! I just wanted to watch fish swim! OMG. I guess we bit off more than we can chew! So, we have one dead fish, one fish with some fungus going on, and three fish who seem they will be okay, but will most likely die too!
Oh and we got a water frog. He was cool, was debating on a name, but yeah, he kinda disappeared. I don't know where the damn thing went! I am guessing he somehow jumped out of the tank and one of my lovely cats ate it...but who knows! Stupid frog. You wanted freedom...well, now you are cat food! Bah!
So yeah, any suggestions? We are just taking one day at a time with these dumb fish. We don't want to name them yet because who knows if they are going to live! One things for sure, no more water frogs. Stupid thing, I'm still mad about that. Stupid frog committed suicide!
