    I liked the title. I have a thread floating around here titled "Fish killer". Emily I know you love and care for all of your animals, you are a very responsible 16 year old. It sounds like maybe your mom is a bit pre occupied? I don't know anything about fish, after all I am the original fish killer.

    Haha, she doesn't understand about cycling the pond/tank or anything, after the little incident she won't touch the water, now she probably won't touch the filter. She feeds them and named them (how she can tell tem apart is beyond me) so she does care and such but she just doesn't know :p she thinks you can toss a fish in water and it'll be fine haha.

    It seems that you have more knowledge about your fish than your mother, so you should try to take care of him rather than your mother. You should try to take him to a tropical pet store and try to be careful with him. Good luck!

    They live in a pond, they don't really need to be taken care of, at least not that much. They need to be fed and that's about it. We don't change the water unless it has an algea problem (Which it hasn't), she is able to feed them.

    Yes.. There is liquid bandage for pond fish.. Any fish really..

    Its inexpensive and will help keep any type of infection out, which is really the only thing you can do for a fish. As long as its eating and doing OK, I see no need to panick.

    Bandage Liquid New Skin - Compare Prices, Reviews and Buy at NexTag - Price - Review

    If you feel as if the fish is suffering, you can also put it down. There is a blue liquid that will kill the fish instantly... supposibly no pain. No sure where to get that at.

    But.. If its eating, it'll be fine. The only time you panick, is when the fish doesn't eat. Fish that don't eat, are dead fish.

    I've always used the freezer for sick fish. Water slowly gets colder and puts them to sleep. Supposedly no pain because their body just starts to slow down until it stops.

    Remind me when I come to your house for dinner to ask if the food has been frozen before I eat.

    I'm not eating anything at her house that might have ever been frozen at her house, near the freezer at her house and so forth.

    In fact, I'll bring my own take out.
