Plakad Jumps Off Then Gets Sick?

[amio]

I bought a pair of plakads earlier. I put the male in a five-gallon tank and the female in a one-gallon bowl. I came over to a friend's house for awhile and when I came back my sister tells me she found the female in the living room. She must've been out of the water for a while cos her bowl was in my room! And now I noticed that her dorsal and anal fins are a bit fuzzy. Her scales look a bit "dry", too. Is she sick, or is it just because she's been off the water for too long? What should I do?

Put her back in water, give her a pinch of salt and cross your fingers!
Do you have a cat? It's very odd that she was found in a completely different room.

My sister put her back in her bowl. But I had to do a water change after that cos there were a lot of hair strands in her water. Probly mine, since I rarely clean my room. Hehe. Anyway, I did put a little salt in her water. We don't have any other pets inside the house, aside from my eleven bettas. But this girl.. She's quite a jumper. Just took a close look at her and I think her fins are getting less fuzzy. Hope she gets well soon. I'm planning to breed plakads. Thanks for replying!

I hope she gets well soon, too. That's just crazy that she was in a different room, I can't get over that! Good luck to both of ya's

Hehe. Couldn't believe it either. Good thing someone saw her. It must've been quite some time before she was discovered. Ugh. It's really funny, though. And now she's starting to become active again. Thanks!
