sigh, looks like my fish is still unwell. He is often floating upside down sometimes in the upside down position at the bottom of the tank. Looks like he can still float and sink just not in the upright position. When he swims, he will do circular movements as well. i would say he is pretty smart too. He knows how to make use of the filter tube to support his chin so that he cannnot over turn and maintain in the upright position. However, a tiny portion of the fin is above water. i am afraid that this will be a little problem.. prolong exposure to the surronding and not totally submerged in the water, will definitely cause other problems such as dehydration. Called the vet up and he recommended another 8 doses of jabs for him. Tomorrow, dad will be collecting them from him and i will have to start the injections again. Hopefully, no more miss in target coz the 11th jab's experience was terrible when the fish just kept moving and when he is finally not struggling,, he shifted position when the needle was inserted and injection was in process. It scared the hell out of me manz,,, coz i am performing the injection in a much lower water level than i am supposed to,, the pressure and resistance are greater,, normally i try to do it just below surface,,, really regret making the decision to do that coz not sure if the impact has resulted in the fish kept overturning today or rather since the 11th jab,, it has been somersaulting more often... ergh,, wonder did i damage and major organs.. coz i saw some red coloured liquid oozing out from the injection site.. but when i think over,, i thought the liquid looks like the injected solution ,, hmmmm... he can still pass motion so no doubts on constipation. Not sure what i observed is bloating stomach or not .. dun think so .. so just have to take the vet's words that he needs more jabs to stablize the nerves. Hopefully after that he could recover as since the commencement of the treatment ,, he has been doing fine ,, eating well and very active,,, today he did not really eat dinner just a couple of dry pellets. sigh... try confinement but he refused and also he kept floating to the surface ... pray for him then (",)
