SORORITY EMERGENCY!!!!!

I have sad news: I came home to find Ilana dead at the bottom of the sorority. Her fins were shredded and she was missing an eye.

SO NOW I HAVE TO ANALYZE HOW THIS HAPPENED so I know how to prevent it AHHhhh.

I just introduced everybody to the sorority on Sunday, with one fish missing (Baby) and one fish who was new (Donovan)
Ilana had had her fins clamped when she was in the cup but other than that showed no other bad signs, and she opened up when there was food and stuff
I don’t know if its relevant but the eye that was missing was the one that she got popeye in, in which the swelling/cloudyness never fully went away after she healed up
Donovan was looking a little stressed in the sorority but mostly kept to herself, hiding under the filter and whatnot
Donovan doesn’t have any ripped fins or wounds on her body, but her color is pale and her stress stripes were INTENSE
Cranberry (who has been in the sorority from the beginning) has a shredded caudal fin

WHO IS THE CULPRIT???

DID ILANA DIE NATURALLY AND EVERYBODY JUST NIBBLED ON HER FINS AND EYE?

DID DONOVAN KILL HER?

DID CRANBERRY?

DID DONOVAN DO IT AND ALSO NIP UP CRANBERRY?

help pls!!! I cupped both Donovan and Cranberry but that only leaves three girls in the sorority and I can’t do that, what if fighting breaks out between them?? Its dark in there, sleepy time.

This move was tough on the fishies. :<

It was just too long and too hot. :<

Fish died, probably from a combo of the heat and not enough oxygen. He was old, but he was Dom’s companion, so I am sad for her.

Fezzic jumped his cup. D:< I’m so annoyed with him UGH he was my most precious of babies and I left them all with their tops off while my family and I got dinner and I came home to dead fish.

And Lillybeth is sick. Idk what with. I’ll have to set him up in like, the five gallon or something to treat him with some fungus cure, he’s bloated and floating sideways and Sav says that helps like CRAZY for this sort of thing.

Man.

My poor babies.

Fezzic, my biggest, versus Midnight, my smallest.

I love how they flare at each other, those cuties. Also the way the blow bubble nests competitively.

Balraj passed on his own.

I’m kind of really thankful.

I was going to euth him for the sake of everyone involved, but I was really dreading it.

I think for the hell of it I’ll do a medicine post later.

Everybody, I think it is time to say goodbye to Balraj. Not only are his wounds as bad as ever, despite medicating, but he has also stopped eating.

:C I really want him to get better, but I can see new infections opening up on the other side of his body and now that he’s stopped eating, I think he’s dying.

These holes, not so much. The fungal fuzz is almost completely gone, but it ate away at so much that you can see a light spot on the other side if his body where the hole is. ;
