However after having her for a year, I know this is her normal activity level outside the tank. She acts perfectly normal and looks healthy despite my taking her for walks.
Unless a certified vet corrects me, I will continue with my practices. Thank you for being understanding and not pushing your ways on us!
No problem.
However...a vet's insight would be worthless. The only opinion of value is that of researchers who took the time and effort to publish peer reviewed research on this subject.
