    Hello King! :) I'm sorry that I didn't know that you tried to reach me back in March... evidently I don't get e-mail notifications from bettafish.com. :/ Things have been better on the fishy front for me... but how are YOU and your little ones?

    That sure looks like ich to me. I'm a little unclear about what kind of QT tank you have her in. And heat is imperative while treating ich but you say she's in cooler water?
    Is there any way to get her in a hospital tank with a heater? You can try to salt heat method but she's pretty well covered so you might want to go with a good ich med. Kordon's Rid-Ich is pretty good if you can get it locally.

    I think that I finally stopped it cold. I'm going to keep treating it to avoid it becoming resistant, but 3 more days is the maximum.

    Doing a 1/3 water change every day now. (Don't want to risk a mini-cycle.) The salt seems to have slowed down the infection, but no fin regrowth.

    Adoption went pretty smooth, but I'm not fighting a horrid case of fin rot that won't go away. I'm going to have to order anti-biotics, and I don't really have the money for it.

    But I did have a dream where I set up a sorority tank and it kept filling up with plecos, goldfish, and killifish that just popped into existence. I had to keep putting them in other tanks.

    Mainly busy with the little babies, feeding and cleaning. Growing very nervous as this is my last month then i will be even more busy with my fifth baby so even more feeding and cleaning hahahaha.... such is life for me lol... the biggest babies are starting to show very light blushes of color and there is just the beginning of the iridescence their parents have. Hope you have a great day with the gorgeous weather we've been having :-D
