How is everybody?

Welcome and sorry about your loss. This is a great site, and if you don't find the answers that you are looking for, just give a holler! Also, I have no idea what the cause of your RES's death was, but keep in mind that it may not have been your fault. It could have been a prestanding condition that you had no control over. Anyway, welcome, you have found the right spot!

Dont know exactly what it was, he just slept and basked alot for about 3 days, and then when i began to get very concered, i called the vet, made an appointment, but about an hour later, he wasn't moving at all, nor did he respond when i touched him, picked him up, or anything
I think he had swollen eyes so from what i read, it may have been the water, or not enough vitamin a in his diet, so i'm changing diet and got a strong filter
