Popeye

We actually bought an antibiotic for our Betta because he has a disease called Pop eye. If it is caused by tuberculosis, it will get better, but he will die :(. Hopefully, it is only caused by a bacterial infection and the antibiotic will make him all better. Eric thought it was silly but has had an unusual affinity for Flash since he attacked a moth about a month ago. This picture is not actually of Flash, but it is a fish with Pop eye. Flash is much more handsome than this fish, even with his HUGE eye.

How do you get him to swallow the pill?

What a cool name for an eye disease!

It isn't a pill. The antibiotic is a powder you put in the water. I'd like to see you try to get a fish to eat a pill.
