I already decided I will never again have Oranda or any fish shaped like them.
Anyhow, I know it's possible that this fish will live, but I don't want to watch him die.... Is it wrong for me to kill him?
I am so shaken up. I am thinking about breaking down all of my tanks but maybe 1 (out of 7) and basically getting out of the hobby for a while... Until I have a house with a fish room where I can really watch my fish every day. I've never head to deal with fish illness before until the last few months. I lost 2 Oranda from... I don't know, the thing goldfish get where they float on their sides. I can't even think right now. I have a tank full of ich I'm still treating. I just found my Neolamprologus sexfasciatus dead but I think he died of old age. I don't know.. He wasn't eating. I just feel like there is sickness and death all around me. This is really freaking me out.
