Hi guys,
My betta has been battling dropsy for about 4 weeks now. After a lot of work to keep him comfortable and medicated, my Tango's health has declined so much this week. I'm heartbroken to say that I think it's time to end the suffering and euthanize him. I am planning on using clove oil for euthanasia because I have heard that it's the most humane and painless way to put finny friends to sleep.
But my question is, does anyone know a good way to preserve the fish for a few days? I would like to bury him next to where I buried my old betta a few years ago but I won't be able to get there until next week because of work and really bad weather in my area. I don't need him to be preserved forever as I would like him to naturally become part of the earth in time. Any ideas??
Any feedback would be highly appreciated!
