Hi Jsoong,
I was able to do all that because of you and everyone else here on this forum. My deepest gratitude to all of you, you've all been absolutely amazing!
Phrilly is already showing signs of accelerated growth in his scales after the clean last night, the ulcer shrunk by about 1mm in diameter already!
Now, is it just me... or do goldfishes actually become more attached to you after you've handled them? I've noticed that, after the sedation and ulcer cleaning procedure, he no longer seems to be afraid of me, but rather, he waits for me and comes towards the glass whenever I'm nearby
Maybe it's just a figment of my imagination
It's comforting to know that the cream would dissolve slightly in their slime coating, and the fact that the cream came off, means that he is actually producing a decent slime coating. I'm really glad
With regards to the denture powder, I read it from thegab.org, but I agree with your analysis, applying such a powder may not be directly beneficial at the very least, which was why I'm reluctant in using it. I'm going to continue looking after his ulcer, cleaning it when necessary, and keeping the tank water clean. At the current rate, he should recover within 2 weeks
Also, would I still need to feed him Jungle's antibacterial medicated food? Considering he's actually showing signs of healing?
Again, many thanks to you Jsoong, and many others in this forum. Hopefully from this post on, it will be all updates of good news from my end
Alex.
