YUP

 

I

 

Sure

 

Did

 

 

I just bought a 10G at Walmart.....My last seahorse has GBD signs again....and SINCE the 16G is in hypo....what was  I supposed to dobrickwall.gif

 

SOOOO It seems I will have a 10G on my freaking Kitchen table by this weekend...so I can treat him...I wish I could figure out WHY this keeps happening

CRAP! Well, a 10g is a good size to treat in, at least. Makes it easy to determine dosages. Good Luck!!!

Well when I was using the 16G I only put 10 gallons of water in anyways...LOL....The meds are usually all dosed for 10G's of water..

 

AND the treatment for this is 3 days....last time I did 5 cause he had the eye issue too....My plan is that he will be in the hospital by Saturday.

I will begin making new water when I get home tonight....and will use existing tank water for the hospital setup...to 70/30 anyway.

 

I will run 2 airlines as I did before.....what can  I say.....IDK WTH is happening...BUT I have to treat the guyshrug.gif

At least he's is still hanging in there. I think a little sea horse tank will make a lovely centerpiece on the table.

HOSPITAL SET-UP    step by step

 

Getting it ready

Adding the background (a lot of reflections LOL)

Halfway full (or is it half empty  LOL)

The lid I had from my other 10G......I think I will need it because of the catsflaming.gif

 

AND the finished product.....there are 2 air lines, a food bowl, and 2 ornaments for hitching

 

I will probably move the horse in the morning....I'm not sure....the kitchen stays warmer then the fish room, so I am a little concerned about temp
