Well here's the thing i just checked on my platies after i moved them to my other 10 gallon because my male betta just started to show some serious aggression, and i turned on the air pump a few minutes ago, well i caught a glimpse of what I thought was a head, and sure enough it was, it was the head of one of my 6 zebra danios stuck in my sunken ship decor (its connected to my air pump) and i freed it but i will have to put it down, its horribl, its caudal fins are gone , its pectoral fins are torn seriously beyond repair from the looks of it . I feel bad and i bet LMM's gonna be sad as heck since zebra danios are one of her favorites. Plus i raised this one from a fry! I was worried it would get eaten because it was soooo small, i mean like a pecil lead small!

Have you tried Melafix, and maybe a little aquarium salt?

No, it was a dying cause, it died. So treating it was going to be useless. thanks for the support though

thanks everyone
No LMM why? This one was my zebra fish that didn't fear me and it had a side on its body that kinda sunk like downwards unlike the other stripes. but well it was kinda curious about it. it wasn't really scared of me though.

It did fatten up these last few weeks. so i guess it just misjudged itself. But i will take it out, i may get those little air stones instead (like i wanted before!!)

just secretly buy the 88 cent one ;D guess what, I went to burger king for fries after the show, I hadn't had them in the longest time, and anyways he gave them to me and then I asked for ketchup and he didn't hear me, after waiting for like 10 minutes, I reached over the counter and took them out of the bucket myself
