I am trying to up load a picture to Yahoo or msn. I ran into a stumble just when you posted.

I'm getting more and more convinced that it isn't ich. I have dealt with ich before. Just hard to get a good look with my glasses at an otoin the dark corner. Hang in there I'm working on getting a sort of decent photo up, maybe

I am also going to check a couple of sources about using aquari-sol at this point just to be sure--even as a preventative, which it is used as.

Ok, Wilder, while I work on uploading to this thread, I am sending you a PM to check the sick oto pics on my yahoo photo album
