I finally got a friend for Jeannie like a month after Johnnie died. as soon as I put her in he tank they became best friends. the new goldfish is a pearlscale named Pearly Mae.
the problem is I'm worried she's going to starve to death. now this isn't the usual case of new tank, to nervous to eat. I'm beginning to think she formerly lived in a test lab where every time they fed her they'd electrocute her lol. every time pick up the can of food she swims under the filter and sits on the rocks behind some plants, completely hidden. I thought maybe pellet food would be better (couldn't use it because Johnnie would only eat flake so I only had flake). so I soaked the pellets, as always, and plopped them in the water. they slowly drifted down but before they even got an inch from the top of the water Jeannie swam over and ate one. one pellet drifted down to where Pearly Mae was hiding, she saw it and swam away in horror.
help?! it's been over a week and she's losing a lot of weight.
