On a happier note...

I have finally found the right size of feeder (for now)!

2 large pinkies seem to do the trick on keeping her 'fat and happy'. =)

Re: On a happier note...

Lol, thanks guys! When I was feeding the 'standard' pinkie size she always seemed thin, no buldges, and was inactive. I have upped her to these large for about a week (2 feedings) and she's plump and actually comes out and about now lol. Her new favorite game is to somehow perch on the teeeeeny ledge of the rim of the tank between the screen and the plastic that keeps her in. Scared the crap out of me since I didn't see her there when I went to open the screen and she falls down seemingly 'out of nowhere' lol.

Also, caught her drinking last night! Made me smile like a proud parent for some goofy reason lol.

Re: On a happier note...

I've dumped my MBK off the ledge, opening it up at least once. He doesn't fit anymore but he still tries, the dummy.

As to the activity level: Noodle's only just perked up in the last week or so. Standard temperatures and light or no, he seemed to know it was winter. Now, though, I'm catching him out and about again! So, if she's been sluggish it may have just been a time of year thing.
