thank you for your worries about Alfred. Tomorrow afternoon, I'll go to buy a medecine called here : Temerol. Hope it will be fine for him ! It will be so stupid if this problem of skin will destroy all the good evolution he's going through^^

Fins are doing great.

I hope the belly region begins to fill in, then I will agree he will be okay.

Synodontis rock!! They can sure take some extremes.(but not a good reason to do it to them)

OH he looks WONDERFUL!

This just made my night! He truly looks like a syno again! I can't believe how wonderful he's doing!

Oh wait yes I can because YOU are doing such an awesome job caring for him!

Thank you so much for the pictures! Merci! (isn't that "thankyou" in French? Sorry I only know how to swear in Italian and Polish :P )

Holy cow; a month ago that poor little thing looked so close to dead, but he's hung in there and come really far...and in that last shot he looks as if he's super-happy and smiling, and grateful to you for saving his life! What a trooper. ;u;

Trust me, on many a day I much prefer the company of my Shepherd, my cats, and my fish to that of most people. [-(

Try that link. Click on "Frozen" I feed the Marine Veggie and the freshwater pack too :) (those are a few rows down). I get them at Petsmart.

I cannot believe Alfred's progress. I didn't have hopes of his poor little spine straightening out, but he's looking absolutely magnificent!

Can't wait for the pictures! I'm in need of some cheering up today! \:d/

Oh the wound on his head looks 100x better!

I am amazed by his fins, the apidose fin looks almost at 100% and so do the paired fins! I can't wait to see his dorsal and his tail fin start filling out as well :YMAPPLAUSE: !

Prayers coming little Alfred's way :YMPRAY: !

Wow! The transformation this fish has made since you first got it is AMAZING. Keep up the good work. This fish was on death's doorstep and barely looked alive. You've done a good job.

I'm impressed the fish survied. I've known allot of fish die for far less miss treatment. Well done looking allot better. I now know syno's can be very tough little buggers.

Well done I hope this continues to go well.
