Sounds like he couldn be bothered (the English have a term I like better “couldn be arsed”), and probably COULDNT have helped you had he even had the time. Talk about service, eh?
>He died about 6 last night, but at least the other fish aren’t sick. They’re still doing fine. So if you have time, email me with your thoughts, cuz I’m curious if you think it was swimmer’s bladder or not. Thanks again! >>Well, there’s certainly a possibility that the swim bladder was affected, this is NOT at all uncommon with goldies, especially the breeds with those shortened, fat little bodies. However, it by no means has to be a fatal disorder, and it is also not *always* an infection. So, yes, the fish had an infection, this much we can be fairly certain of. Chances are his swim bladder was indeed affected, as well as many of his internal organs (as evidenced by the bloated side). So, while the other animals appear fine, if it were my tank, I would take some precautions and (unless you have live plants) make use of non-iodized salt (ratio of 1tsp/gallon) for a few weeks. I would also have some Spectrogram on hand (I happen to like this broad spectrum antibiotic), as well as any
