Sick fish

The whitespots on the tang got even worse after the freshwater dip treatment. We had to act fast otherwise the poor thing would die as the parasites feeds on its flesh and blood..puitis sungguh! Haha

Sooooo we took action by setting up a quarantine tank. Using the previous tank, we bought a smaller filter pump, some live rock to host the bacterias, and a small bottle of chelated copper as medication for the fish. Copper works well on eliminating parasites but overdosing could cause poisoning and death to the fish. It also degrades by time so additional solution should be added and its concentration in the water should be monitored. Too high fish dies too low fish dies too lol. It says that i should put 2ml for every 50 litres, after calculating the water volume, all i needed was only 0.3ml. I din have anything to measure the exact amount but i remembered one of my lecturers used to say that a drop equals to 0.1ml. Jadi aku pun bedal la boh 4 titik. Cuak gak ni kot2 memory tu aku reka sendiri dlm kepala kan, kang mapuhh plokk ikang ni. Tgk2 keesokan harinye molek skek, yay!

Ohh and we went to the local fish shop and got a couple of ugly corals for the tank. I hate them cz theyre not as colorful as the expensive ones but whatever. We got them for free so papejela.

The hospital


The recovering blue tang


The tanks


The ugly freebies








Haaa pastuuu ada sekor ikan aku yg aku ckp missing in action and is thought to be dead and its carcass eaten by the forever hungry shrimps, rupenye mmg dah mati. Tapi tidak dimakan udang, cuma mati kering lol. He jumped out of the tank, menggeletik sensorang kat dlm baldi tu sampai laaa mati patu jadi ikan kering.

A lesson for all escapist fishiesss


Aku nak simpan tapi DH tak bagi. Dia cakap kuman. Akupun buang luar tingkap.

Hari ni aku main squash 2 kali. Pagi dgn prof hood salleh( power org tua ni, malaysias national champion of the year 1975. Lutut nak tercabut pun bully aku like crazy) ptg dgn bosto. Now kaki aku rasa malas nak berdiri... Aku nak je jalan2 lagi tapi kaki aku ckp cukup2 la seksa dia.
