Typhoon needs prayers/update 12/11. He's much better!!!

[My Peanuts]

Typhoon, my betta, has been sick. His eye is popped out and I treated him twice for pop eye, but I don't think that's what it is anymore. His eye is completely clear, just big.

He's swimming and eating. I keep his tank clean. I use fresh water salt and water conditioner. I don't know what else to do for him.

I think he might be getting old. Poor guy. Please pray for Typhoon.

He doesn't look too good today. I hope he just lets go soon. My poor little guy.

I'm so sorry about your little betta, I will pray for the little guy. I have a betta too, I'll get him to pray with me

He's still hanging in there. I wish there was something I could do for him. He had almost no color Sunday and yesterday he had a bit more color. It's clear it's his time to go. I hope he goes soon. I don't want him to suffer. I am treating him with Pimafix (I think that's what it's called. I'm at work and can't check.) It's a natural remedy for bacteral infections. It's gentile on him, so I thought I'd give it a try although, to be honest, I'm not to hopeful.

Please pray that he gets better or that his trip to the RB is smooth.

Poor little Typhoon. I hope he gets better.

My poor guy is still hanging in there. I actually think he looks much better than he did on Sunday, but his eye is still popped out. I haven't seen him eat, but I'm really going to watch him tonight to see if he eats anything. Maybe even try to give him some blood worms.

Well it sounds like he might get better if he eats. but you said a few times he's old and sort of wish he would just go and be out of his missery. It sucks but sometimes we have to make a choice for our pets sake. For a mammal this is getting a shot from the vet for fish a trip to the vet would only be needed if you want someone else to do it for you. If you really think he needs to be out of his missery here is a site on euthanizing fish.

Thanks for the tips. I think that helping a suffering animal to die is one of the best things we can do for our pets, however, Typhoon is swimming and acting better. If it gets to euthanasia I will have to do what I have to do.

Sending prayers! Get better little buddy!

He's still kicking, well actually swimming a lot more, but I have not seen him eat in days. He was always a big big eater. This is the strongest betta I've ever seen. I think he's fighting. Yesterday was the end of his treatment, so I can change about half his water today. I hope that makes some difference.

I never knew I could get so attached to a betta, but then again I've very attached to my other fish. They even get gifts for Christmas.

I really hope little Typhoon gets better soon. Bettas sometimes fight hard for their life, which is good! He knows he has a good reason to live We'll keep on praying for him! Keep us updated.
