Well I just arrived home from the ER to find a dead fish... let me fill you in.
So I noticed one of my 5 tiger barbs was acting a bit strange. He was just hiding at the bottom of the tank appearing a bit unhealthy.
So I thought I better pull him from the tank and put him in isolation so I filled up a bowl with about a gallon of water and pulled it over by the table to get everything situated. Then it was go time but as I grabbed the bowl to pull it over closer it broke and cut my middle finger deep and about 5cm long needless to say a few profanities came out and after about 20-30mins of not being able to stop the bleeding I decided to head to the ER and get it stitched up. 9am-2pm I was at the ER and when I got back the tiger barb had died but it looked like he was half decayed already.
so my question is what killed him? all the others appear to be okay. plus I thought this would just make for a fun story to share with you all.
cut & stitches:
luckily it's not my dominate middle finger so my flipping off of people wont be halted.
