Good news!
I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance! No, actually I live in MA where it's regulated, BUT my black molly fry re-appeared this morning. My husband I looked for her for at least 5 minutes yesterday and couldn't find her, but this morning there she was swimming like mad looking for tiny bits of food. There's a bunch of floating anachris so I'm sure she's finding stuff to eat, I also crush up a flake into tiny bits for her.
Oscar the betta is still eating less but eating. He occasionally chases the white cloud but for the most part they ignore each other. I also found a small pond snail that must have been attached to the anachris. So I guess the tank has filled itself for now.
