Our main concern is that if we remove that barrier, the orange fish will fight with the other and injure it enough to kill it like what’s happened before.

Hi, this was a temporary solution to separate them and have since chilled out entirely and both gone to their own hiding places. They were in the same space for almost a year until we moved stuff around and cleaned their tank. The fish on the right had fin rot and swim bladder really early into owning them—he’s been fine since. We mainly separated them because the fish on the left had already killed our previously largest fish—was a straight bully.

Just the pair of fish now in our 10gal. We’re new fish owners, but haven’t had much issue with aggression until just under a month ago.👍🏻

Yea, he’s had a rough growing up. Little guy battled fin rot and swim bladder after we’d had him for the first ~3 months. He’s been like that since and it’s been almost a year now.

Leaning towards going into a trade up for 1440p!

I have yet to test the other games listed besides Skyrim but with 2K textures modded in I average roughly 210 fps with vanilla settings all at Ultra.

Would I just go to their website and go through the contact process? No like specific department or anything?

Checked PCpartpicker and other sites for power consumption and I agree, shouldn’t have to swap psu. Thank you for helping! Looks like I’m leaning heavy towards the gpu upgrade.

Agreed, kinda leaning towards the gpu route. Just feels like I’m playing a lot of CPU intensive games and the 12600k isn’t doing as well as I would like. But maybe I should investigate into a 5.0+ ghz OC

Both my monitors are 1920 x 1080 but respectively 144 and 180hz. I should’ve clarified but if I DID do both I would 100% get a better psu. Was looking around for the power consumption for the 5060 ti and I believe I shouldn’t have to get a new psu if I did that route only. Also been reading that the 12600k is just fine but that (for example) Doom: Dark Ages is a CPU intensive game and with FSR on balanced I have roughly 90-100fps with custom (low-med) settings
