[OOC: Rikki is still currently in the medbay where Jimmy brought her, but she's had Marine Velvet way longer than most fish could survive it, specifically because she's much bigger. That said, she will probably only live another day or two, if she's not properly diagnosed and treated.
Copper kills the parasite; another way to attempt it is to submerge her in freshwater, since it's a saltwater parasite and it tends to slough off in fresh water — which is why she felt better, initially, when she was in Jimmy's bathtub, it's just gotten too out of hand for that to be anything other than temporary relief.
Medical staff/volunteers/other nearby patients might notice her breathing in quick, shallow breaths today, over-perspiring, continuing to cough up blood, being generally lethargic and, unless interrupted, itching her tail raw.
Do with that what you will. Carry on! :)]
