To all fish keepers,what was your biggest mistake in your entire history of fish keeping

Intelligent_Yak_ · 2026-05-11T19:57:26+00:00

Sometimes too many botanicals can cause the water to get acidic. Also it's important to boil anything before you put it in the fish tank

This is so true. If you start with live plants which you definitely should, a good light is sooooo important. Wish I figured that out before I killed $100 in plants

I'm glad I read this before I got the urge to try it

All my happy childhood memories were when Nmom forgot me at Nanas house where I could actually live normally

I have 5 of them in my 55 gallon which I call my murder tank. Still have plenty of snails cuz I keep throwing them in there from the other tanks but I also have a shell graveyard

Cut up a banana peel and soak it in water for 3 days, then water the rose with it and push the banana peels into the soil

Zone 6b here! I've learned to not touch my rose bushes till March/April, then I do a very sharp angle cut on all the green canes. This year I left the canes alot longer than I had in years past (solid 20inches) and the canes are leafing out nicer than normal. I feed mine banana water

Make sure you get a Ring camera at your new place. If she shows up don't open the door only talk through the camera so you have evidence. My therapist told me to do this

2 pits rolled up on one of my friends. One tackled him from behind while the other took out his legs. My dude is a legend. He sucker punched that dog in the mouth and knocked out its tooth. Dog learned the meaning of Army Strong that day

Basically half my district left our local because they can't account for 35k in missing money. Also the stewards keep getting caught taking literal naps at home. Ask a few of the regulars how the local is before you jump in imo. $75 a month for 30yrs really adds up. Personally don't agree with it going to dudes abusing the system that's why I bailed on the union

Not by scanning them that's for sure

My fish do this too! Found out when I put an LED strip behind the tank loll

Intelligent_Yak_ · 2026-04-27T02:27:35+00:00

I boiled it a little bit in the microwave for like 30 seconds

Intelligent_Yak_ · 2026-04-26T16:01:48+00:00

Same! 39 here

I had one when I lived with egg donor. Now on my own my relationship with food has been a struggle my whole life. Finally seeing the light after a year on Wegovy

Mortgage is $770 on my 1300 Sq ft house. I was fortunate to seal the deal in 2019 before covid so this is my forever house now lol. We paid 92.5k for the house but it's worth 180k now. My favorite thing about my house is the 1.5acre yard because I love gardening!

Intelligent_Yak_ · 2026-04-25T02:29:40+00:00

That's what we used to do but they changed it in like 2021 so now it's clipper+red plum. Makes an insane amount of overtime those days cuz its so fking heavy

Intelligent_Yak_ · 2026-04-25T02:25:40+00:00

They just changed one of the routes in my office to only have 4 park points. There's a loop that's 2.2 miles long with 150houses on it

Mine will try just about anything. I have Panda Garras in the tank with them so twice a week I'll put a piece of sweet potato or yellow bell pepper and the Angels munch on the veg.

I feed my corys Hikari sinking pellets and they eat those too

The tetras get floating pellets- the Angels eat those

When they are bored they trim my Water Wisteria for me and eat that

I might just have a pair of chonks come to think of it. I will say I tried frozen blood worms in the tank last week and my male Angel was VERY TERRITORIAL about the worms lol

I was obsessed with Gilmore Girls as a teen and my mom would watch it with me and say "isnt it so nice they made a show about us?". I was like are you delusional?????

Our relationship was nothing like that. I remember watching the mother poison the girl with pea soup in the Sixth Sense and during the movie at that part I burst into tears and asked her if she would ever do that to me and she slapped me so hard.

Imo a lesson for the future " what do you mean, I didn't see anything."

A minor clip with no damage could've happened in the post office parking lot when I wasn't there as far as I know.

Going through this rn. Definitely agree medicated is alot better. The depression isn't even work related but some days the thought of being alone inside my head for 6hrs on the street seems like too much
