I really cant tell from the photo, if the scales are lifting up or not. Is she turning black underneath? |
No she isn't turning black underneath. She is also having difficulties swimming around, not as fast as before. That picture was taken yesterday...today she is even rounder. |
You still havent told us if the scale are raising up. Are they? |
No, her scales are not up. That looks nice. |
It is important to let us know if the scales (fishes skin) is lifting up! We are checking for signs of Dropsy. I have had experience with this disease in comet goldfish, fantail goldfish, and swordtails. I have only been able to twice successfully heal the fish. Is it starting to swim sideways? (checking for swim bladder issues). I have experience with this too, and successfully taken care of it three times within my aquariums. Both issues are considered fatal in a lot of cases. |
