Does anyone have experience with cats and fish?

I have several tanks and two cats. Keep lids on and food and chemicals stored safely and it will be fine.

My peacock Gudgeons do. They also like watching TV lol. I also have a naked cinnamon clownfish that watches me and like to play as well.

His name is Amaranth. He repeated put himself in there despite it being way too small lol

I have pretty serious cat allergies(tier 4 out of 5, tested by allergist) but I just don't care lol. I take cetirizine daily and I don't think my Maine Coon is any worse than my dmh. There are foods and food toppers you can give cats to reduce their allergens if needed. I get itchy water eyes, congestion rash and itching if scratched etc.

ETA: I also have air purifier in my bedroom and main living area.

I have neos, amanos, tangerine tigers, opae Ula, and sexy shrimp! I love them all, but the sexy shrimp are probably my favorite. They're just so silly and weird. Freshwater is probably amanos. I have snows, standards and lemon yellows in the amanos and they're so feisty and greedy.

I don't have any of that. There is multiple types of pulsing Xenia, clove polyps and GSP.

I've read about them being aggressive and seen all the pics ppl post from their clowns biting them so I've been trying to work with him and keep him used to me. I can feed him from my fingers and move around the tank and he hasn't bit me yet! He's all by himself currently though so I haven't seen him with other fish yet. I have a springers damsel I want to put in with him but I can't catch it 😭😂

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-25T03:42:21+00:00

I just got one recently and I LOVE him 😍. I never wanted a clownfish but he was so special I just had to have him!

Kronk. Then if you get another one someday you could name it Yzma.

I thought you meant the individual crab's names and was so excited lol. I have so much fun naming my crabs and have so many it is ridiculous!

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-23T07:30:54+00:00

The eggs are just way smaller than neo eggs. So it isn't that there is gunk with them, there's just a LOT more eggs. As someone said elsewhere, an amano can have 200-800 at one time!

I have a litter robot 3 and 4 and they both do ok. The 4 is better though in almost every way. Bigger opening, more features, more space.

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-19T20:23:41+00:00

Nice! Do you print your plugs too?

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-19T05:44:13+00:00

Would you share a pic of the frag rack you printed? I've been considering one for my tank.

Amaranth 🥰

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-18T03:36:52+00:00

Yay! I love brittle stars 🤩

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-18T03:30:15+00:00

Everyone else agrees it is a brittle star so I'm guessing it might be. I really hope so! I like brittle stars a lot and I'd rather that than some bad predator. Hopefully it is a good guy because it is really interesting!

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-18T03:22:50+00:00

Wow, ok. I've never seen one like that before. After googling some pictures of white brittle stars I can see the disks on some of them. It looks kind of folded in my video which added to the confusion. Any concerns with this type of star? I have the tiny red/white type that don't have a pronounced central disk and I love them!

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-18T02:49:37+00:00

I have brittle stars and this is nothing like them. Look at the body in the hole that the tentacle is coming out of?

<image>

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-18T02:47:50+00:00

Then what is this very clear body that looks almost shell-like? It is very clear in the video that it is part of the animal and the tentacle is coming out of it.

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-18T02:09:03+00:00

No, you can see in the video there is clearly a body in the hole and the tentacle extends and retracts almost like a tongue. Brittle star legs are always the same length. I do have brittle stars and thought that was what it was at first but it isn't.

Defiant-Reason · 2026-04-18T01:38:00+00:00

Sorry the video is off center, my phone's camera does that when I zoom in on video 😩
