YesseGriffen 1 Posted August 4, 2017 Recently I got a fish from a friend who neglected his fish, he kept the goldfish in very cloudy water and in a 4 gallon aquarium for a couple of years and didn't really care about him. The fish has had blood lines on his fins and such since I got him, will these heal up? He is a fancy goldfish, I think a fantail goldfish to be exact. https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=a72265e11a&view=att&th=15daf6ac6c3f011c&attid=0.1&disp=safe&realattid=1574842234196459520-local0&zw https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=a72265e11a&view=att&th=15daf6b584fb847b&attid=0.1&disp=safe&realattid=1574842274050736128-local0&zw 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
