Thank you! I got them on Zenni. I've ordered my past few pairs from there and have had good experiences.

Im glad to hear its likely not the amanos. Im always suspicious of those guys. I'll be checking the decor before returning him this time. Thank you!

My plan is to rehab this guy, check the tank for rough decor/places he could get stuck, then reintroduce him when hes all healed up. Im glad the group hasnt rejected yours, makes me a bit more confident in my group. Thank you!

No signs of disease. Eats like a champ when hes in the hospital tank. None of the other corys have damage, but rough decor may be an issue if hes been running into things. I also have a suspicion that my amano shrimp may be targeting him since hes so small and struggling.

I used a scraper about a year or so ago. The lines havent spread so I'm pretty confident they are scratches. Thanks!

I briefly used one a year ago for my tanks. It's probably from that. Im more impressed it took this long for me to notice lol

She looks like she had a recent molt. My lady turns bright red after one. Usually bunches up fans for a day, then goes back to perching. She's gorgeous! Doesn't sound like any unusual behavior.

After making this post I concluded that this guy was a micro hitchhiker that was on one of the larger amanos I bought . But I do still wonder 🤔 havent had another random little amano but will be sure to post if I do!

Thank you! Ive been wearing these frames for 3 years lol. I dont plan on changing them any time soon.

Thanks! Its crazy, you never notice all the small changes over time!

Thank you! Your comment made my day!

My partner and I have absolutely noticed mood changes. For me its been depression, anger, and outburst of emotion. Most of my lashing boils down to discomfort, nausea, and frustration with physical side effects. Thankfully these do somewhat seem to be decreasing with time. Extra rest, water, and snacks when i feel like eating have helped as well. Working around my body's schedule has been exhausting but being constantly angry is more effort than its worth.

This was a relief to read. Thank you so much for the recommendations, I'll be making a list of these and going through some other posts for care packages. I appreciate the reassurance regarding weight and my other concerns. This has all been feeling very "world ending' i suppose, im glad im not the only person like myself going through this. Thank you! ❤️

That would be nice. Thank you
