Sad News

I'm really sad to report that Lasairian died this morning.

 

I don't know what happened. I changed his water on Saturday and he was fine. I fed him Saturday. He took one bite of food (I think it was too big a bite. More than one pellet stuck together or something) and went to the top of the bowl. Just hanging there. He stopped eating.

 

All day yesterday he was either at the top or bottom of the bowl...totally just like 'meh'. I could tell the spirit wasn't in him. He ceased to be Lasairian and started being 'fishy' again.

 

This morning I looked at him and knew he was a goner...he wasn't dead but I considered flushing him to put him out of misery. At about 8.15 or 8.30 this morning...I was at work...I got a 'flash vision' like a window opened in my head and there he was...his old self.

 

I knew right then. When I came home he was gone.

When you changed the water, did you use bottled water or tap water? It may be that chlorinated tap water is bad for your fish, because I know that it's bad for turtles. I'm using bottled water for my turtles, and it's not really expensive. I get the plastic jugs from the supermarket (it would be nuts to use fancy name brand bottled water). I'll probably get a larger tank with a filter this winter, and then I won't have to be continually changing the turtles' water.
