Rearing Danny

So its almost a month since Danny has been home!!!Taking into account the life span of Siamese fighter fishes its quite sometime that he has been here and the good news is that he is really HAPPY home with me..

It has been a tough ride with him the initial days..He was sulking in the corner not taking food..Then i did few things that made him happy..

*There is some kinda water problem in Adayar i think.Barely 2 days i changed water i noticed salt deposits at the rim of the bowl and the Danny sluggish..Tat fellow was also pampered in his pet store with mineral water..So despite our limited resources Danny enjoys one bowl full of mineral water each week.

*Then i changed his food.Initially i bought a 40 Rs bottle full of food pellets which i crushed and fed him everyday..First few day he spat back whatever he ate. Over a period of time he started eating lesser and lesser till it became nothing..My Highness must have come from a royal family.Extremely worried i bought him a pack of dried blood worms worth 200 bucks and he gorges them like a pig.

*The final smart thing that i did was to add 2 drops of AQUATIC REMEDIES every time i change water.Initially there were some white spots on his scales..Now they are all gone and he is a merry kid prancing around his bowl playfully.

He is even thinking about starting his own family and blowing little bubbles on the top of the bowl!!Am thinking of breeding him..But that's costly business involving lot of time and money!!!I always wanted to give the best to Danny..So lets c wat awaits him?
