Re: my relationship
Wow just because you don’t understand a human-animal relationship (Platonic ofcourse) you think you can knock on it? I don’t think you understand the complexities that come with owning a pet. They are a huge responsibility; emotional, physical and monetary. I think the OP wants to know the underlying cause of her fish being a mute. Its a valid issue that any of us might come across when dealing with our pets. Just because its a fish does not make it any less important or inferior. I hope I make myself clear.
As to the OP.
- Have you been feeding it properly? Timely meals make a fish happy.
- Are the O2 levels in the tank correct? A fish needs to breathe properly.
- Is it getting enough light? Make it bright, rainbow colours preferrred.
- Is it a new pet? It takes time for all living things to adjust.
- Is it just one fish? Maybe it is having trouble with other fishes?
- Have you tried playing it music? I hear fish respond well to certain genre.
- You can always take it to a counsellor. Dr Doolittle is highly recommended.
