in the beginning i was buying meds left and right to keep fish healthy. and just tossing what was left if i needed a new one.

what i have done now as someone suggested if its a "cheap" or easy to breed fish i just toss it.

BUT now before i buy meds, i go ahead and use whats left in each tank, even if no one is sick. it "seems" that i have not had as many sick fish either. i dont know if this is the case. but it seems to be working for me, i will only get one sick now IF that as opposed to 3 or 5 like before.

I agree, if the fish that is sick is worth $4 what is the point spending $40 on meds?

I dont have a dog or a cat

They both got sick and i trashed them cos it was cheaper than paying the vet bills .........

only joking

my fish are jumpy why??

Are you running FT in windowed or full-screen mode? If you're running it in windowed mode, that's why your fish are jumpy. I don't know why they would be jumpy in full-screen mode. Maybe there's not enough memory or cpu power...

Perhaps they're nervous about their impending illnesses.

My fish are jumpy sometimes, but that is because my FT sometimes runs slowly, it's very temperamental,
