Fish Update

My siamese fighter is not well; happened very suddenly, was fine friday as far as I remember, but on saturday fins looked all sticky and decayed: fin rot.
I put him in a separate bowl and medicated him. He isn't eating, and now is swimming funny or just lying on the bottom.

I got some more plants to put in the tank, some large and small val, so tank looks all grassy and reedy. The fish seem to enjoy swimming amongst it.

I also bought some acid buffer stuff. The idea to lower the pH slowly, and then get some discus and see if they survive. They are a bit pedantic, and fussy... not too mention a bit expensive. Aquarium has cheap ones at $40 atm......
