Our lovely betta, Fishy, died today sometime while we were at work
We think he had dropsy, because he was bloated and his scales were sticking up and out. We were hoping to try and treat it but the fish forum hadnt responded since yesterday. Although trying to treat dropsy can be a lost cause. He had a good, decently long life for a betta.

Pictures of him, in his happier days (I posted only a few weeks ago!):

How sad. He looks just like the one I had a few years ago who died of the same thing. I know how you feel, I tried to save him too.

OMG speaking of dropsy... I lost my pleco a few months back to it, he had a severe case... He actually exploded into bits. Im suprised he lasted as long as he did... I couldnt figure out what was wrong with him until sofiecusion told me.







RIP to your beautiful fishy... I also lost a fishy two days ago... One of my dwarf puffers got mutilated by our filter (sucked into it).
