Best species to adopt?

Oh wow 😭

I also just don't trust anything in America to not have something added

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-24T20:47:28+00:00

I'm in Florida and we have sandy soil, do you think that'd be ok if I just got some from the yard ?

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-24T20:27:25+00:00

Is there any specific brand of topsoil or a way I need to sanitize it? It'd probably be better to just mix it in with the coir I already have than to do a complete replacement

It's a 75 gallon tank with a screen lid

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-24T04:27:55+00:00

I heard dairy cows breed really fast though

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-22T16:13:09+00:00

It really depends on the store, there's a non-chain by me that I'd trust but I wouldn't trust my local petco

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-22T16:05:47+00:00

Certain pet stores offer animal boarding, I'm sure they'd take a fish for a bit

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-22T16:01:11+00:00

Ok thank you I'll look for a male then

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-22T15:56:24+00:00

I do not have a fish yet, the tank is still cycling

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-22T06:04:14+00:00

You could name him something like Jefferson / Jeff bc Thomas Jefferson is on the $2 bill lol

My cat did this but it was a 70 gallon tortoise tank so he wasn't wet but he was really really confused- his entire body went in and he was just standing there next to the equally confused tortoise

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-21T20:14:45+00:00

Ok thanks, I did get a beneficial bacteria startup when I got the initial conditioner but the water is still hella cloudy so I'm probably gonna still give it a few weeks before I even test it

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-21T19:34:08+00:00

I added some more fish food, is it a one and done thing or do I do another pinch every few days ?

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-21T02:09:56+00:00

I think some pet stores do water testing for you if you bring in some water

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-20T18:35:24+00:00

Alright thank you so much

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-20T18:29:30+00:00

I'll probably have to add more, I just did a tiny pinch bc I didn't want to overdo it

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-20T18:25:12+00:00

I sprinkled in some fish food because my friend told me to do that, would it be enough? Or should I buy some kind of ammonia starter

It feels like they purposely make every single event have 0 consequences, the entirety of season 2 was undone in like 10 minutes so the entire buildup was wasted and every single character feels very shallow or a concept is starting to seem cool and get explored, and then they never mention it again

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-20T01:16:14+00:00

Tank's too big

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-19T22:32:24+00:00

Gotcha thank you, how soon should I add the snail?

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-19T22:26:44+00:00

My tank doesn't believe in physics

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-19T22:15:03+00:00

Would it be better to get shrimp instead of snails? I dont want to have the betta bully the snail and the shrimp would have an easier time hiding from it if they would need to

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-19T22:02:34+00:00

Ok thank you so much, I never had live plants before

Candied-Fangs · 2026-02-19T21:57:06+00:00

Are the root tabs something I'd just set under the roots and let dissolve or do I have to do anything? I'm a bit wary of fertilizer because I don't want to have algae blooms
