He got better, and then suddenly died...I did some research, and discovered that dropsy doesn't go away, and the best choice is to euthanize them in a humane way.....</P><P>R.I.P Spot...........1998-2005....."I'll miss you more than you'll ever know"...Sat, 22 Nov 2008 10:19:28 GMTSpotty001http://www.aquariumfish.com/aquariumfish/board/Topic151428-29-1.aspxat least you tried :(Wed, 06 Aug 2008 12:58:11 GMTcherridothttp://www.aquariumfish.com/aquariumfish/board/Topic151428-29-1.aspxSaphir my Ryukin Goldfish died on 7/24/08 around 5pm-6pm EST</P><P>I tried to save him from a bacteria infection which looked like Septimicia which he had before with medicine and anti bacteria pellets and which it kept on developing and happened to turn into the dreaded dropsy when his scales started sticking out more and more all over his body.Fri, 25 Jul 2008 10:24:54 GMTDragina
