NEED HELP!!!

[lil_shez]

My peppered cory is floating around the tank like its dead then every so often it will swim for 3 secs and then back floating again.

One of the angels keeps biting it and its lost one of its eyes.
i think he is barely hanging on

Should i put him to sleep?
If so how?

 

[FishGeek]

I would. There are many ways to do it...flush him, freeze him, take him out and put himin a smal bowl....your choice. Sorry for your loss.

 

[lil_shez]

thanks guppy

Don't Flush him.. that's a horrible way to go. Also, he could live for a while or if it has some disease, it could spread to other life forms, etc. Here is a link on how to euthanize your fish.

give him an ICE BATH thats where you get ice cold water and out ice cubes in it and then put him in there.... he dies peacefully in 15 secs

 

[Fish Friend]

also he might have a seeeerious swimbladder prob

:O Don't kill the poor fizzel. Separate him from the others, perhaps his in bad shock, or wounded from the other fish... I say separate him and see how things go for a while!

 

[lil_shez]

nah he had lostt an eye , so Chazwick i think its cruel keeping him alive and waiting to see how he goes in the state he was. A peaceful and quick death is what i chose and i feel its the right decsion!

 

[Fish Friend]

yeh i agree lil shez.... it is best to put him to sleep... have you ended his life peacefully ? if so how did you do it ? an ice bath ??

 

[lil_shez]

yes i put him in an ice bath yesterday
