I feel weird even typing this, but at least I'm being honest!
I need to boost the healing of my pet goldfish, whose been suffering with a bit of a disease for a few weeks now. He's had a fairly stressful time and he seems to be a naturally panicky fish, and his disease is getting worse even though we've been giving him his medication since day one, and generally doing all we can to help him get over it quickly.
I've got everything ready and prepared to be done in a few days, but I've been through the books and I'm struggling to find a suitable water-aligned healing herbs to use as an incense/charm for him. It's not at all necessary, but I would like to use an incense harmonic to my intent if I can. I also favour plant matter over stick/cone incense or essential oil.
If anyone would be so kind as to throw ideas into the air, I'd be very appreciative. The books have left me with very few pointers, and I'm working long shifts between now and spell-time so I don't really have the option of taking an inspiring stroll to find materials.
Thank you friends.
Edit for clarification: My little fish has got finrot, bless his heart. He's on Anti-Fungus/Finrot medication from our biggest local petstore. I'm not keen on putting anything that's not food in his isolation tank, but dietary supplement advice is appreciated. I have faith in him, even though he's a little 'disposable' goldfish - in his short but colourful life he survived a really rubbish day being used as decoration for a wedding party, taken out of his tank to lie on the tablecloth, a car crash during the same day, and having to be walked a mile home in a tupperware container. Infatuated as I may sound, I'm not gonna give up on a fish who kept on living even though everyone told me he'd be belly-up by morning.
Edit for update: Having done all we can for our little fish, he swam into the foggy halls last night. We hope to see him again in one form or the other.
Thanks, friends, for your help.
