hey all!
As some of you maybe read already, I recently moved my goldfish out of their tiny novelty tank to a lovely 10 gallon home. i've had the fish since march, and they seem to be growing like crazy.
I am wondering about my red cap oranda, though. It appears that he (she?) is starting to develop his cap, but somehow all the red color has faded! Is this a normal part of the cap growing process? Could it have to do with the less than ideal water conditions before the tank had cycled (there was a good week of high nitrite levels).
I feed them tetrafin flakes in conjunction with tetra colorfin pellets.
Any thoughts would be appreciated...thank you!
