My loach didn't make it through the night, thanks for helping

I thought so, any other ideas?

Thank you so much, I hope so too. But, if you know, i did a little bit of reading on dropsy a few minutes ago and it reccomended moving the effected fish to a different temporary tank and the thing is, the closest thing I have to that is a breeding net. He is about 4 inches and I don't know if...

I changed the tank water about 50% last Monday. And I don't have a test kit of my own and won't be able to get to Petco for a while. How can help him recover if possible and is it contagious to other fish?

Ok, I planned too anyway, thanks for the help! Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I'll try that and see if it works, and the sun usually passes over my tank for a few hours every day. Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

Could you specify matinence I use my lights from about 7 am - 9 pm, but I'm not very sure what frets are (sorry, still slightly a newbie at all the terms and such) Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice
