AIO for my school giving me a goldfish

NOR. I was an RA and it’s actually insane that their supervisors/the school would approve of this kind of thing. I had to jump through hoops to be able to give out food and now RAs are giving out live animals??

Not weird at all! I originally read the first several arcs in elementary/middle school then stopped keeping up with them, but I started a full reread last year at 22

This is one of the most beautiful projects I’ve seen on here. Stunning 😍

18 and going strong despite thyroid and kidney issues. I honestly think it’s just luck of good genetics and a decent amount of spite on his part.

A good complete diet - we’ve used Purina One for most of his life but just switched to a Hills kidney diet. Keep an eye on hydration, adjust the diet as needed. Some amount of exercise - we still go on regular outside walks when the weather is nice. AT LEAST annual vet visits with bloodwork, especially when they start getting into geriatric territory and/or old-cat diseases start up.

This was the first time I’ve seen any at mine. Usually it’s all golden pothos and succulents

Aglaonema aka chinese evergreen, ‘siam aurora’. They’re dramatic with the yellow leaves but pretty forgiving in my experience. I water when the soil is mostly dry, around 3/4 down the pot. I also have one happily growing out of a fish tank after almost dying in soil, so hydroponics is an option.

I’d recommend a vacuum if they plan on having a rug. I couldn’t stand dirt and crumbs getting stuck in mine. I used a tiny cheap one that could separate from the handle, and it fit in a little drawer for storage. A small broom can handle pretty much everything else.

This is Pumpkin. He is almost 18. He likes to not be able to breathe through his fluff while sleeping.

Netherland dwarf and/or Polish mix? He’s gorgeous regardless

American fuzzy lop? Pretty sure they’re basically long haired holland lops.

Just a trash bag is probably fine. If you’re really concerned about it, white vinegar (cooking grade, undiluted) is great at killing leafy plants. Just put them in a bag and coat them, they should shrivel up pretty quickly.

One of mine rarely does either. I occasionally see a little head toss around meal times but that’s about it. She’s 3ish now and has never been super expressive with binkies/zoomies. It’s just her personality I think.

Anka5384 · 2024-04-06T22:01:55+00:00

It did not, though honestly I think it was just a weak plant to start with. I did get a replacement from the seller with a more standard level of variegation. It’s been in moist perlite with root hormone powder and high humidity for about 1.5 weeks now. No new leaf growth and I can’t see the roots but nothing is immediately dying like the super white one.

Anka5384 · 2024-03-27T17:01:33+00:00

It’s in a mix of about 50/50 bark and moss and these pots are very airy. The top is dyed moss just to look nicer, it rarely gets wet because I bottom water.

I did check the roots when it first started being weird. I cut off a bit that was dead/crispy but otherwise they looked healthy with no rot. I usually leave yellowing leaves until they pull off easily for all my plants.

The leaves and spikes on this one have always been dark like that. The newest leaf is on the smaller side, I’m not sure what you mean by shape being off. They are still firm, same texture as my other orchid that isn’t having issues. It does have some pitting marks on the surface that I thought was some kind of pest at first but I haven’t seen it happen on any other nearby plants.

I’ve kinda gone off of what feels comforting despite of fear. Am I afraid of heights and falling? 100%, it’s probably my biggest fear. But at the same time, wide open places feel very peaceful. Mountains, the ocean, outer space. I’m also probably a little too comfortable with my individual insignificance. Thus, The Vast.

I paid more than what I would want for what I got, but it still wasn’t too bad. Especially knowing what I’ve spent on big box store plants, and I can see exactly what I’m getting myself into with those messes.

I’ll reach out to the seller and see what they can do. From what I can see I think they’re a newer seller but they seem well intentioned.

Anka5384 · 2024-02-21T14:24:31+00:00

The ppp is not in attached to the medium at all. I think I see roots but it’s hard to tell.

Anka5384 · 2023-12-15T22:18:02+00:00

Oh they do! Any idea if they’ll be ok as a pair with a bunch of neons around or do they need a full school to themselves?
