My fish decided to get a fungal infection. :( He's a big fish I've called him Fishy, cause I could never think of a name for him. Maybe I'll call him Walter. He suits Walter.
Ok so Walter decided to get a fungal infection and he also decided to kill my other little fishy, Billy. It was very upsetting, I feel very responsible for my pets and get very upset if anything happens to them, even if they are fish. They are my responsibility and their lives are in my hand. So I was devastated when I found little Billy all dead and bruised around his head. He went to the porcelin express. A few words were uttered and he was flushed.
Meanwhile my other little fishy Pom pom is doing well. Walter ate her tail off, so I had to rehome her into another tank and now her tail is beautifully growing back. But there is no way I am putting her back in with Walter. Walter is a Piscicidal fish! He can live in solitary confinement for now with his fungus.
Anyway I've treated the water with Methylene blue and malachite green. Doesn't seem to be working. So will have to do some research on treatment for fungus in fish. :/
Here is Walter with his fungus. Excuse the quality of the pictures, I took them on my phone and phone doesn't have a macro setting.
Here he is hiding behind the driftwood ready to pounce on some unsuspecting fish:
He has the killer instinct.


Here is little Pompom:

She doesn't like the camera:



Here's a prettier picture I took of Pom pom earlier:


And a picture of Walter and Billy before the fungus and the murder:
Oh and that's a snail on the glass there. The snail doesn't have a name.

Cheers. Love you and your piscicidal fish!
