He/She fought the good fight and lost.

He had been in a hospital tank for quite a while.
With red lips, which seemed to get better. Then I came home
from work one day and he looked like a pinecone.
I had been following the treatment for dropsy and using
tri-sulfa in the tank as well as soaking the food in
erythromycin. He would get better, then get worse, get better,
then worse. He died sometime yesterday afternoon.

Sorry to hear that, Azul. Sounds like you did all you can. It's hard when
a pet dies like that. I wish you all the best...

Azul,

Sucks doesn't it. It's just as hard when a fish dies as it is if
a cat or dog dies.
