The glimmer of hope, from that hot-mess of a situation.
Today I found a single, 1/2 long Golden Ram Fry swimming around the aquarium.
It somehow survived the poisoning (?), being moved to a new tank, Ich and then the ich medication that killed everything -> we have a survivor! I am moving it into a newly cycled 10g with grow it out for another month. I'm hoping it's a female because I have a lone black male that could mate with it.
