I was cleaning out Pickles tank today, but not before Nenets.
She was doing good, trying to swim around, looking for food.
So I left with Pickles tank for a out half an hour.
Came back after 15 minutes though to check on the girl, and she was still fine.
So I felt and came back with Pickles tank.
Half way across the room, I notice something off.
I couldnt see Nenet.
So I ran over with the bowl, and she was nowhere to be found (not that there IS anywhere to hide in an undecorated 1 gallon tank, but I saw something move through the bottom.
I nudged it over with my free hand and Nenet was LYING under the tank, flipping around.
I dropped the tank on the ground and picked Nenet up and put her back in,
who immediately went to hide.
I noticed a little white line on her body, so I have yet another wound to care for.
So I cleaned up the mess, put Pickle in, put a little more conditioner in to help ease her stress, and sat down and cried.
I think she was out for a while, maybe 10-15 minutes.
The thing I dont get is, the water must have been 3 inches from the top of the tank!
I didnt have a lid on, Becuase I didnt think she could jump that high, but I guess she did.
Awh, Im so nervous.
When I turned off the light to see how she would react, she came out and started darting everywhere.
She was hitting the tank and just freaking out.
She had stress stripes no doubt for the 2nd time since I got her.
This ust makes everything worse.
Could someone throw out a few tips or advice please?
I litteraly hyperventilated in my room for 10 minutes beforecalming down.
Its been about half an hour to an hour since this happened.
I wouldve posted sooner but I was busy cleaning up.
