Does anyone here do this? Bowl-training your TVR so they get used to it during shows, etc.

Sapphire was pretty much clueless. He had no idea what to do or where to go. His gill problem is pretty much gone now though, no rapid gill movement seen.

Sorbet, on the other hand, was like an energizer bunny. He just kept going and going...probably my strongest fish right now. Neither of them really looked comfortable in the bowl.

Unfortunately, I have to work. The show that I could possibly display my fish is prob the MA one that I just missed. Maybe next year...
