ooo boy. I would get her in some epsom salt right away. Infact i would go straight to the 2tsp per gallon. Does she have any pineconing?

[xShainax]

Not pine coning I think it's just really bad constipation since she ate most of the pellets

[lvandert]

how many pellets do you feed in one sitting?

[xShainax]

I feed them 8 and never mind she passed away. :(

[lvandert]

8 is way too many. You should be doing 2 twice a day or 4 in one sitting. I'm sorry she passed away. In the future treat with 1tsp epsom salt per gallon, you can bump up to 2tsp and then 3tsp if needed.

I am sorry she passed, she was beautiful.

[xShainax]

If you want to see beautiful, you should see how blue Pepsi got. I will try to get a good pic eventually lol

[lvandert]

aren't some girls just drop dead gorgeous?

[xShainax]

They are, the light hits her fins and it flashes turquoise. If she was a male, I know she would be gorgeous
