I'm going to speak as the owner right now instead of Bandit. I'm sure if Bandit was human, he wouldn't be able to do much speaking at the moment anyway...the fish have come down with a terrible disease called ick. It is what Riley and Valentina died of. I thought that once they had passed on and when I changed the water, I had gotten rid of the disease. I suppose not. Bandit and Guppie look horrible right now. Their fins are clamped, their skin/scales are sore and puffy in some parts it's absolutely horrible. I have never seen such a bad case and feel so sorry for them. :'( Baby has the disease but it pulling through alot better. He came from Petsmart a much healthier place than Bandit and Guppie, which I believe is half the reason he is as in good shape as he is. Sweetheart seems to be immune and shows no sign of illness. I thought the red minor tetra were immune, but I found a big sore on Spark's left side today which made me sick to my stomach to see...Little Fry and Tiny Fry's breed is known to be immune so I know they will be alright. Right now you may be thinking how did I let them get in such bad shape, well you see my dad is in charge of changing the water and cleaning out the tank and with the divorce going on, he's acting stranger and stranger and I feel he hasn't been feeding the fish when it's his turn or giving them medicine daily. Their are way to many packets of medicine for what he says to be true. I just hope Bandit and Guppie will be alright...it's his fault they got this bad and if they do go to the rainbow bridge anytime soon, I hope it's not from this. When and if they feel a bit better, I'll scrub the decorations with a toothbrush and water so some of the disease is ridded from the tank...as odd as it sounds please pray for the fishies. They are still animals and are in alot of pain :( Thank you so much for reading, Boomer and the Fishie's Typist

Our families paws are crossed for our little fishy friends. I hope you pull through it. Mom knows how terrible Ick can be and how fatal to fish. We once lost a whole tank to that stuff. I'll pray they make it through Boomer. *hugs to the fish* Fade and the whole gang!
