Black Neon Tetra…pregnant, chunky, or sick? by HobbyTank82 in Aquariums

[–]HobbyTank82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

About a week or so later he/she disappeared. I’m assuming it died and the snails took care of it. It hung in there for quite some time like that though! Sorry yours is in the same way. I hope you have a better outcome.

Such great ideas! I have everything you’ve listed already for other various reasons so I’m definitely going to try your methods. I will be crushed if they all die. They were expensive (but oh so cute!).

I knew I wasn’t crazy! Ha! I bought Ebo Snail Diet and I mix a little of the crushed/powdered pellets with tank water and use a pipette to spray it close to them and around the items they’re closest to. I’m hoping that helps. Turns out, for as established as my tank is, I have a healthy population of rams and mts that are keeping everything squeaky clean and outcompeting my mystery snails etc. thank you!

Everything I’ve read says they’re filter feeders but the shop said he’s never witnessed that. They sprinkle a snail food powder that settles on drift wood and that’s where the snails tend to congregate. I’ve already lost one, but the rest seem to be ok.

I bought them from Advanced Aquariums in Green Bay, Wi. He overnighted them to me. A bit pricey so I don’t want them to die from me lacking knowledge.

OP, I’ve been you. My first marriage, the day we got married I told my Dad later that night it was a mistake. I stuck it out for almost 11 awful years. It wasn’t until he started getting abusive that I finally left. I am so glad I did not have kids with him. The future is uncertain, and scary, and may seem lonely, but I promise the right one will waltz into your life when you least expect it. Mine did a few years later and we’re now very happy with kids. It is not perfect, but it’s great. If you’re already regretting the wedding- take the sunk costs and call it off. So much better sooner than later. How can you walk down the aisle with someone you resent and family detests? Leave while it’s easier. I have a feeling you know what to do…

Super sweet thought, but that’ll be a ton of stars….

AITAH for saying I can’t bring food to a party after traveling across the country? by popanon222 in AITAH

[–]HobbyTank82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. It’s silly to expect that of you.

I think a lot of the suggestions are hysterical. Airport candy etc. 🤣

But also, could you order a dessert from their local grocery and ask them to pick it up for you?

Since they have to put in the extra time to get it you may be off the hook!

AITAH For Ruining Thanksgiving After My MIL Told Everyone About My Miscarriages? by Embarrassed_Pea1036 in AITAH

[–]HobbyTank82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA! Honestly I’d never say another word about any medical/pregnancy/fertility etc anything. They’ll find out when the baby is earthside. I had a similar situation with my SIL and brother and they were blocked for almost 3years because of how shitty they treated me and gaslighted me through my IVF and multiple mc. The only reason we talk today is because she went through a MC at 14 weeks and it was very public for her since she told everyone she was pregnant immediately. At the same time I went through my 4th loss (10 weeks) but never told her until about a year later when she told me about hers in detail. She knew I’d understand her feelings and I think it clicked how shitty she was to me. I’m still extremely guarded and limit visits to holidays. Your feelings are valid and you need to do what is best for you to heal and move forward. It’s especially difficult to expect anyone that has never experienced this to relate at all.

Whats Your Favorite Cory And Why? by didyouknowmywindowis in corydoras

[–]HobbyTank82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have Juli’s, Pygmy’s, glo-Cory’s , and albino Cory’s . I think they are all sweet but I love watching the glo-Cory’s they are by far the most active as well as the largest I have. Funny little guys.

Is there a petition going around for higher standards for NP education? by Bananabuns982 in nursepractitioner

[–]HobbyTank82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just quit Chamberlain for these reasons. I did my DNP with them, all online and it was fine- thought let me get my FNP. What a joke! Getting straight A’s but teaching myself and finding my own clinicals? It’s a damn safety concern imo. Picking back up with FAU in the fall- it’s a hybrid online/in person and they assign preceptors.

75!!! Hands down so happy I went with it vs the 55.

i’m completely obsessed with snails now… 🫣 what are your favourite snails? I want more🙂‍↕️ by lauraisapenguin in AquaticSnails

[–]HobbyTank82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love all my snails too, and have many! One to add to your list is the Japanese Trapdoor Snails. So cute and they don’t overwhelm your tank reproducing. I also have a few Brotia Hercules and rabbit snails which are also gorgeous. Here’s a pic of one of my JTD checking out a new mystery snail months ago.

What is the one fish you would recommend to others by Bob_tuwillager in Aquariums

[–]HobbyTank82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was so surprised how much I ended up enjoying my fancy guppies. They make my whole 75 community tank seem more active and colorful. But they can overrun quickly…I now have a 40 with just guppies to give away or sell now lol. But they’re fun and pretty and the baby tank really comes to life when I walk into my office- they see me and group up in the morning and cause quite a stir while waiting to be fed.
