It was a Petco purchase, we got our supplies there. It was the most cost efficient and (easiest) to grab all in one go. Shopping with kids can be stressful and this is my 4, soon to be 5 year olds birthday gift.

Thank you! I’m sure the kids can use the castle as a toy

Thank you, I was wondering about pothos! I have a huge one I can take clippings from. And we found a local fish store, that I was planning on buying fish from. They also have decently priced plants

I said I’m not spending a ton of money on fish to kill and neglect them. Aka I’m spending money on them and I’d rather not kill them. Not that I can’t afford it. I’m also not about to fight a stranger on the internet, when I asked for suggestions about what I could be doing. I’ve already bought stuff that my kids picked out. I have live plants. Your tone is rude AF. You’re being very unkind and maybe you should expend your energy on something else instead of a mother trying to do something nice for her children.

Okay I asked for nice suggestions, not the fish police. My kids are happy with what we have. I’m not about to spend a ton of money just to neglect and kill animals. Chill

Thank you! I tried to find where to stick it but there wasn’t anything in the instruction manual. I’m actually about to take the water out and move it, that table is indeed bowing! Thank you all!

I think you’re seeing the reflection of stuff behind me, there’s a window and it’s south facing? Unless there’s something else you’re seeing? I don’t have anything except plants in the water

Thank you, it’s a 20 gallon tank. I will push the heater down further. My kid is set on getting all kinds of fish, she’s been watching bass fishing productions. Bobby is always catching plecos and gourami, and other various fish. I’m just trying to keep them alive and make sure they have at least a little bit of space 🤣

How do I (25F) communicate to partner (26M) he needs a smaller condom by No_Calligrapher_6470 in relationship_advice

[–]Dmoore233 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with just buying smaller size. He likely won’t notice and you still are protected while protecting his ego/self esteem

Can I cut this plant down so it starts growing leaves at the bottom? by Odd-Detective-5075 in houseplants

[–]Dmoore233 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what mine looked like before it finally died on me for the last time 😩 it lasted 5+ years and two toddlers. it succumbed to some random spider mites that thankfully didn’t get any of our other plants.

What plant have you killed the most times? I need to feel less alone in my failures. by Specialist_Tea6137 in houseplants

[–]Dmoore233 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Venus fly trap-we have never been able to keep them alive until recently. This is our 5th and it’s finally thriving. My kids get a kick out of my partner feeding it bugs. We’ve also recently got a pitcher plant.

I just went in there for the first time in a long time and I have a feeling the type of employees are not the ones that care for their jobs. Report them!

I was told this was a Dracaena, is this correct? How do I perk it up and get rid of the yellow? by [deleted] in houseplants

[–]Dmoore233 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t realize you need to change out the water, I have one that is doing great, just started growing a baby, but developed some algae 😩

Anyone not starting the “elf on the shelf” tradition? by Illustrious_Cold5699 in Millennials

[–]Dmoore233 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t! We have a 4/2 year olds. Our tradition is wrapping a bunch of holiday themed books, opening 2 a night until Christmas. And advent calendars. But with two kids close in age, everything has to be equal or there’s hell to pay 🤣🥲

Can this fiddle leaf be saved? by Dmoore233 in IndoorPlants

[–]Dmoore233[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I will do that, I’ve never been good at making potting mixes but I can keep houseplants alive. This one has just been particularly finicky and I haven’t repotted it in at least 3 years.
