[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You all are a tough bunch.

I’ve been taking care of the fish. I check the water daily. I do routine water changes. I’ve painstakingly helped clear up fin rot once, and nursed a torn fin another time. Please stop with the criticism and accusations. I’m the only one taking care of the thing! I think we’ve given it a pretty damn good life, better than a small cup of tap water at the pet store. I’m bonded with this stupid fish. As I said in my OP, I don’t have the heart to flush it. But I also hope it isn’t blind and/or suffering. Treatments aren’t helping the eye situation. [/quote]

And you're an adult. You made a decision to care for another life. So care for it. And set a good example. I hope in your lifetime you don't have to rely on the mercy of other people to care for you when you are unable to care for yourself.

The conditions you cite are almost certainly attributed to water quality.  So fix it.  And you can fix it with minimal investment and effort.

Finally, do everyone a favor, please no more pets for your family. If you can't handle a FISH, you are certainly not able to handle a dog or cat.
