tell you what and where to go and if yu did that you would have
already had yur questions answered and a suggestin made to a cure if
possible. No, yu owud rather **** around and bitch with what was
opsted, than takeup the info and go with it. Hope your freaking fish
croaks now dude, sorry, but your not fit to keep fish if yu can not
take a suggestion and have to fuss in stead! I suggest re-reading that
reply and doing what was suggested if your really at all concerned.
Get the **** over it!

I am sure Zebulon aka Carol will be alaong shortly to give you
an
answer which in all reality will be the wrong answer as she is so
adapt at ad libbing lies and making them sound like she knows what
she
is talking about. I suggest taking this question to a web based
forum
and get answers from foks into fish keeping than folks into usenet
trolling and wars. Try koiphen.com or koishack.com for the best
and
most trustworthy answers. .......Do not trust CArol aka Zebulon's
answers ass she has been known to give erroneouos info that has
cost
folks their fishes life before.....She only does none thing right
and
that is lie.

I am new to fishkeeping and am not sure what to do for the
best. I
noticed this morning that my less than a year old comet, Dale,
is
swollen mainly on the left side above the pelvic fin but
perhaps a bit
on the right side also though not as much. He is sitting at
the bottom
of the tank but will come up and swim around if I lift the lid
then
when he realises nothing much is going to happen he goes back
down
again. He is still eating and the water quality is within ok
limits.
I have only had him and his tank mate, another comet, for 11
days so
cannot believe something has gone wrong already! Dale has
always been
the slightly smaller of the two and the quieter and doesn't
eat as much
but seemed perfectly healthy until this morning. I don't see
any
raised scales or gasping or areas of soreness so what do you
think it
could be and if it is possibly the start of a bacterial
infection
should I start treatment straight away just in case. If so
what to do
and should I isolate him or leave in tank to treat.
