I'm going to try that -- at the worse, I'll be going 'eww, yuck' about the floating pinkie. (ewwwwwwww)

Do you think it might have better luck if I reduce the number of rosy reds she's offered with the pinkie in the water? Ie: if she's more hungry, she might be more likely to actually eat the pinkie rather than spitting it back out.

I was hoping that with the vitamin powder, she'd be okay nutritionally. I know that guppies would be better for the little bratling, but there isn't a local store that carries feeder guppies. Just rosy reds and goldfish.
