Hello There! It’s been a couple of weeks. So its time for some updates on my pearlscale goldfish – Baluku. In case you don’t understand what Baluku means, it means a bump. And how do you use this word?
Used in a sentence: “I have a baluku on my forehead because I walked into a glass door.” – Taken from The Smart Local
So as you can see, Baluku does seems to have a bump on its head, therefore the name for it. 😂🤣
So, we brought Baluku to vet some 2 weeks ago. With the hope that it would recover from possibly swim bladder issue. I read from some articles that goldfish with swim bladder problem will last a few days, weeks, months and maybe even years. But most of them won’t survive long.
I, myself. was surprised that there is a vet for pet goldfish. So we decided to bring him down to get some advise.
Initially, we were thinking of leaving him at the clinic to receive injection, but it costs more than what we can afford – $40 per night + $50 per injection. So we decided to bring him home. And gave him water treatment with the antibiotics given.
Enough of that. I saw there are many shrimps in my goldfish tank too! And I am pretty sure, they are striving pretty well. But the thing is, I think I have monster goldfish.. they were biting my plants away which means, I need to head down to local pet store to get more plants for my shrimps. Else, they do not have hiding place.
And there are new spawn in my shrimp tank! I am so excited!
Anddd~ that’s all for now! 😄
