HE'S EATING!!
So I've been treating him for "FIN ROT" and the past couple of days he has literally started to fall apart. His tail is completely gone and his top and lower fins are very close.
But he has his appetite back!
I've kept the temperature at 79-80*F during the night and 88-89*F during the day because he also caught ICK while he was sick. The parasites have slowly but surely started to disappear.
I moved him from that Crazy gold fish and will keep him away till he gets big enough that the gold fish will not bother him.
I know he is not out of the dark yet and will continue to monitor him for the next month or so.
I couldn't get pictures up because I can't find my camera plug. But as soon as I find it I'll upload some pictures.
I haven't checked for ammonia yet but I will do that tomorrow and let you guys know. Thanks for all your help!

Keep with the weekly water changes and good luck. Look into investing in a bigger aquarium for the little guy, as silvers get really big and their internal organs never stop growing.
