There are lots of resources available to you if you think you have a sick fish. There are a lot of books that have been written on it with great pictures and great descriptions and also effective medications. Always, the tried and true method is to describe the symptoms or take pictures of the symptoms and come into your local aquarist, your professional aquarist shop. They're also going to have medications there. Keep in mind, they're dealing with fish all day, every day. They've seen everything, so they probably know how to fix anything that you're going to come up with. And then you can go selectively online. Obviously, it's a great resource for a lot of things. The same is true about fish disease and cures for it. There is some disinformation out there, so you have to be careful with that, but if you use one or a combination of all those methods you'll probably find the best solution. Most things are curable, and some things simply aren't. That is true with every animal on the planet.
