sarajo 566 Posted May 27, 2013 Thought I would do an update since you guys haven't seen Otis or Monroe in a while. They are doing pretty well. Otis is still having floaty issues which breaks my heart and after numerous attempts to fix him, I've realized this is just how he will be for the rest of his life. Yesterday I added Eden back to the main tank because I didn't see any point in keeping her in the QT since she is healing so well and she was so happy to see her boyfriends again! My 40 breeder is going through some changes right now and it has seen much better days. I recently took out all 60 lbs of eco complete, since I never really got around to getting the planted tank look that i desired, i figured it's best to just go barebottom. I haven't quite got all of the tiny bits of gravel out yet, which is what you see on the bottom. I'm upgrading to a 55 gallon within the next few months for the 3 of them and I am super excited about that! Thanks for looking! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaylaj2355 464 Posted May 27, 2013 Your tele is a heartbreaker Is that Otis? Gorgeous fish!!!! I know your pain when it comes to floaters. I have a ryukin that will float if I feed him. Unfortunately I've been advised that goldfish need food So he just sleeps upside down on the days he eats. I'm hoping it's okay long-term. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The tele is Monroe, Otis is the bronze oranda. Thanks!! So sorry about your ryukin I think as long as it's not affecting his quality of life to the point where he doesn't interact with you or want food, it's okay 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kaylaj2355 464 Posted May 27, 2013 Oh Monroe <3 <3 So gorgeous! The bigger the eyes, the harder I fall. That's what I hope, too He is happy and eats readily. He even seems to enjoy his ability to wiggle all around and easily flip upside down and back again. He's my little circus freak. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Palligretar 36 Posted May 28, 2013 Why do goldfish always look like they frown upon our activities? But that Oranda is way too cute! Nice fish. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
