Regular Member dogsbykat Posted November 23, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted November 23, 2010 Bizarre! Does the belly twin breathe separately, is it developed enough for that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member mikroll Posted November 23, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted November 23, 2010 oh wow! is the other little one alive? well ,they have been living and growing "two-gether" for several months now so i certainly would think that it is living material. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member mikroll Posted November 23, 2010 Author Regular Member Share Posted November 23, 2010 Bizarre! Does the belly twin breathe separately, is it developed enough for that? can not tell if it (little lower one) has gills or not. but where the head area should be, it is becoming darker and something is projecting out more ( eye or bit of jaw or mouth ? ) also in tail area can be seen another bit of fin belonging to who?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Captain Findus Goldfish Posted November 23, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted November 23, 2010 oh wow... then the food gets somehow processed by the larger twin? otherwise the little one would have died? Very fascinating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
