She'll be a bit bigger than usual around the belly area, but it will look a "normal" shape with no deformities.
Hmm she sort of look a bit more podgy but wouldn’t say out of the ordinary. She doesn’t look skinny for a fish that hasn’t eaten in 2 weeks. I mean maybe she pecks at food when I’m not looking.
Can I ask did you honeys just pass eventually? I’m not sure what to do for her. The salt baths stressed her out too much, so I didn’t do many

Yes, they didn't hang on for very long once I'd worked out what was going on.
Took me about three or four weeks to realise while trying various options.

Well. RIP honey. I’ve helped her on her way. Found her stuck against the filter and decided she was obviously too weak. She didn’t make it easy for me to put her to sleep but I think it was the right thing to do.

Thank you. Feeling super guilty this morning. As many times as I’ve had to do it in the past, it doesn’t get any easier.

Sorry for your loss
To the tune of “the saints go marching in”:
Oh fluffy sheep! Oh fluffy sheep! Oh fluffy sheep are wonderful, they’re white Welsh and fluffy! Oh fluffy sheep are wonderful!

Thank you it was horrible. I think I got the dose wrong in my upset to help her, so she wasn’t very calm. So feeling absolutely awful today.
