Hello Everyone,
Sorry it has been a while since I have posted an update... Actually so long the thread was closed.
Our first goldfish was Pierce. The Carnival Shubunkin that my Daughter won. He want from 10 to a massive 75 gallon and we had found him a friend, a Yellow Shubunkin named Savannah. Unfortunately, I lost Savannah to Dropsey. I will get to that in a bit.
Our other Goldfish Save was Maverick (Formerly named Flounder). I saved him from my Daughter's friend that had him for 2 years in a 10 gallon tank with a Very Agressive Gourami that tore him to bits. Poor guy had Ammonia burns and torn Fins... All of them. Maverick not only graduated to his cooler name, but from 10 gallon torture tank to 10 gallon Hospital Tank, to 30 gallon Breeder and Now to 75 gallon with Pierce and his friend Opal.
They have all gotten so big. We graduated Maverick and Opal to the 75 gallon to meet up with Pierce and Savannah. Savannah was the timid one out of the bunch. Unfortunately one morning, my son woke me up saying "Savanah is Stuck!" Well, the other 3 became Great Friends and Swam around chasing each other but Savanah was not able to keep up. That night, the other three got a bit too Agressive in their Social Behavior and nut have pushed her in the corner, behind my Fluval 406 intake tube. I immediately took her out and she was having a tough time staying right side up. I put her in the 30 gallon breeder where she seemed to recover and swim slowly around the tank for a week or so. She then started to swell up and "Pinecone". Tried giving her medicine and good food, but she passed away.
Attaching a couple picks of the Gigantic Pierce and Maverick... If you remember Maverick, his fins were Shreaded and now almost all grown back.
