Auden update!

So I've had Auden for a little over five months now and he has become such a little goof (emphasis on little :joy: ). If you haven't followed his journey, I got Auden and one other baby on November 14th, 2018. They were babies from Petco and were the worst ones there. His 'sister' ed away shortly after I got them, but I still have little Auden! He has come so far and I'm about to upgrade him to a 2.5 gallon (once it finishes it's cycle).

When I first got him

His first setup (cup)

Second setup (.9 gallons)

Look how pale and scrawny

You can see how bent he was

Look at those colours!!

He never sits still, it's so hard to get a good picture

Sunday night's dinner, first time I've seen him jump

You can see just how much he's improved! He used to not even be able to get to the surface, let alone jump! He has such a joy to watch grow up, but it's terrible what he had to go through in his first weeks of life: in a cold dirty cup in a pet store where no one wanted him. I am so I glad I could give him the life he deserves. I hope you love him as much as I do!

I'm not aware that petsmart were selling them that young.. It's a good thing that he/she stayed alive that long being in a cup. They're very delicate at that stage and a lot could go wrong.. Kudos to you for rescuing/getting them!

Thank you! Yes, he was such a delicate baby, and still is. I hate how young Petco sells them, it's just cruel. I'm just so happy he's come so far!
