Sick Fish!

[liz2]

not very good with goldfish unless they are in pond! looked after 3 school fish over holidays..they were fine..but on day before I took them back one of them was very listless so I left him in my tank..no others in there..to be honest I though he would die quickly but he is same colour no marks but bent like an "n" shape. He is still breathing and tries to swim. he is thinner than normal. Any ideas? Only got meds for swim bladder, fin rot, fungus, anti bact, and aqua salt, and stress coat (used some of this) help please! as I now feel guilty for just leaving him! if it had been a betta I would have had to have a day off work to nurse him!

Sound like he's on his way out to me Liz2. I had a goldfish and when I found him dead ,he was bent over like that Sorry

Sadly if he's bent and is thin sounds like fish tb to me.

my fish didn't have TB . hopefully yours and your others --if he was in same tank as them---haven't got it

thanks for reply...he is still just about here..the other 2 fish have gone back to school...they have a super tank I bought from someone on the forum...as long as they last until the end of term!
