Goldfish adventures! Thoon V (my gold comet) passed away this morning! Very sad! He'd been very sick for about a week, and after much TLC and attention - he didn't make it! Five months... oh poop.
However, the other speckled goldfish, "Ying-Yang", had been sick a few weeks ago (a large growth on his face, no-less!), and I was almost about to... erum... give him the flush (in case he was suffering)... but he literally picked-up overnight and recovered 100%. Thoon was very fussy and concerned around him when he was sick. When it was the other way around, Ying-Yang was very caring around Thoon, while he was unwell! Yes, goldfish can show empathy!
Ying-Yang seemed kind-of 'lost' this morning, so I had to get him a new companion - a new fishtank-mate.
So, today I welcome Thoon VI into the household! At the moment, the two of them seem to be getting along OK.
Oh, I know they're just goldfish, but they're great conversationalists... well, they are good listeners, at least...
