Fish Recovery: Day 2

Put the required medication in the water. He's still not eating and seems more lethargic. He just sit at the bottom of the pail, body tilted a bit. When I stir the water to see if he's dead, he swims up for air. I went out in the afternoon and thought he could drown if left unattended for an extended time. He could fall asleep and forget to come up for air. We'll see what happens overnight. I am relieved to read on several sites that sick bettas could live for two weeks without food.
