  • Annabelle Update! You're Not going to Believe this!

    Imagirlgeek, fishlady and everyone else:
    I have an update. You guys are not going to believe the conversation I just had! It all started this morning when I answered a free add, someone needing dirty media to establish a fish tank. I don't know if everyone here belives in God and I'm not going to preach so don't worry. If you do believe in God you can say he is definately at work here, If you don't then you can say it's fate!. Anyway the person asking for established "gunk" from a tank to start a cycle called me after answering her ad. I had also posted that I have pure amm. if she needed it, knowing how hard it is to find. That's how the converstaion got started. She couldn't believe that she found someone that knew what a fishless cycle was. After our conversation took off, we got on the subject of my puffers, then Annabelle, then the worms. This woman worked for "drsfostersmith" and she lives right down the road from me! Can you absolutely believe this? She knows all about these worms that Annabelle has, how to treat them and what meds to use! Can you believe that? Right down the road from me! I still can't get over it! Anyway, she's totally sweet and she will be coming to my home tomorrow to pick up the amm. and she's going to have a look at Annabelle and get this: She offered to help me get rid of the worms! Can you believe it! All of this because I answered a free ad! I am in total shock right now! You guys.....something good is finally happening! I can't wait until tomorrow! She's going to call me before she comes. I will be anxiously awaiting that call! I just can't believe it! I really can't! Not only did I meet a really nice person who loves fish who by the way had a "huge" 1600(?) gallon "reef" tank in her home before moving down here, who worked for drsfostersmith, now retired, who knows about Annabelle's worms, who offered to help me, who lives right down the road from me, who, who, who, I'm out of breath with excitement! I tell you what.......I'm going outside to run in circles and yell at the top of my lungs "thank you god!" and let all of you soak this in as well as me, then I'll post again later!

    Btw: If anyone in the beaumont area has some dirty filter media they can spare please send me an email so that I can help her also.
    Thanks

          Ok now that I have stopped shaking with excitment and my boss now believes I'm crazy, I've finally calmed down enough to type. I just can't believe that I found someone that knows about what's going on with Annabelle! This is a true miracle! All my boss could say was: That's Great! He was laughing at me or with me. I'm not sure and I really don't care, I am just so excited!)

            Not to get all biblical on you but....where mercy is given, mercy is received. You've been nothing short of generous to me personally as well as many others.

                    Ok here's the update for the day. I slowly added the meds into Annabelle's tank. She handled it so well, I am so proud of her. I'm sure the first 24 hours are going to be the hardest on her, it has already been almost 9 hours with no ill affects. I still have the 10g up and running just in case I have to remove her. I may be able to tear it back down tomorrow evening. I just wanted to let everyone know that all is well so far!

                        Here you go, this was taking about an hour or a little longer after dosing the tank.

                          Update: Last night she refused to eat. This morning she was waiting for her breakfast, swimming and looking good. She didn't eat much but now she's chasing a ghost shrimp!
