Thanx guys!!!

[melissa]

got back from my trip and my babies are not really all that good
unless it takes a long time to defrost Cota is dead WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

and poor Axceel has a weird wobble going on.... i couldn't get anyone to check on them, but the people that replied said they would be ok for 3 days, BUT THEY WEREN'T!!!
i mean they looked a little out of the ordinary but they didn't look they would DIE!! or become disabled, someone please let me know if this is normal (Axcell wobbling i mean) or if it has happened to anyone else....

I'm sorry for your loss, Melissa

that is so very sad.

Get Axcell out of the tank and into a container with fresh declorinated water and put her into the fridge. give her some salt baths. I think it is two tea spoons of salt to every gallon of water if I remember correctly. I really hope I'm not wrong. usulaly I just add a bit of salt to the water, and this helps.

Keep some change water in the fridge with her so that her water can be changed when it gets dirty and also that it is the same temp. You don't want her to get water shock.

There wasn't anyone there to keep watch? Do you have a cat? Could the cat have possibly injured them in some way?

Good luck to you. if you need any further help, please don't hesitate to ask
