Pray For Mi!!!

Hi all, my XB has 3 days ago went into a 'S' shape looking swimming style. Check wtih some bro & was told to add salt & increase temp. Next day, very thing seems ok & normal. Then on following nite, it came back again inot 'S' Shape.

I did WC 20% today, left for work. Came juz now.........to my horror, my aro is floating with its stomach on top. Nevertheless, its still breathing...........I think must be the F.....ing 2028 cannister lah. I changed the cotton wool 1 day prior to wat happen to my XB. Juz couldn't understand....I nvr change the water inside the cannister leh.........

bro... keep it upright.. if you have some acrylic, hold it upright.. once they flip over it's very uncomfortable for them.. also, get the vet quickly..

Nope, juz took out e old & dirty cotton wool, rinse e sponge using tap water. B4 replacing e new cotton wool, rinse it w hot temp tap water. Then using anti-chroline treated water to soak both wool & sponge 4 a while. Replace everything & connect all to original cond.........no change of water at all.......some more used original 2028 replacement part........!!!

Been using this method for my other 3 prime30 cannisters for almost 2 year......nvr have this problem b4.

Its e water condition problems........juz couldn't maintain it properly everseen chnged to 2028. Its an old tank w new cannister.........last time used 1 prime30 nvr encounter problem maintaining water cond.....

btw, the media were mostly transferred from old cannister conbine w some original ehiem media. Nvr chnge water when introducing new cannister......at first....looks ok....then later, my XB became very stressful & restless. Its starts to dash around & become jumpy. Nvr happen b4. Then starts developing pop-eye, it took me 2 months to cured the eye problems......then it starts to have blisters forming around its anal fin & tail fin area. Again, treat it by increase temp & salt & regular(3-4 days) 20% WC. After a week, slightly better.........THEN the unbelieveable comes.......my XB went into a 'S' shape (Top View). Panic....check w some bros.....can't do much since I hv increased water temp, salt & regular WC.

Yesterday, WC 20% b4 setting off to work, came home at nite..............saw my XB floating w its stomach on top. Breathing thought.......can't couldn't believe my eye..............my blood starts boiling, panic, sad, angry, scare....everything juz rush into u.......cannot eat cannot sleep.......sigh

By 2 am.......I juz hv to accept tat it has gone for good........for almost 6 long months, my XB have been consistantly stressed & been gone on treatment almost evryday.......

Wat a louzy day.......f......ing heart pain........sad.......most of all.......ANGRY!!!
