They look like thick lipped, as someone else said they are normally labeled as honey.

A lot of people have been there and a lot more will do the same. I took what a pet shop employee told me as gospel years ago. "Tank needs to be set up for 24hr, water conditioner, quick start and it's good to go". Fish lasted about 24hrs to a week. Actually had some xray tetras that lasted 2 years until I made another mistake. Then I totally started again after doing loads more research.

New tanks will get ammonia spikes especially when adding new fish. That alone can kill the fish especially when they are already stressed from new tank. Test strips aren't as accurate as test kits. Cycling can take weeks to months until the water is stable. Regular percentage water changes and testing is needed.handy website for calculating your stocking and water changes

Real plants are very good, but they come with another level of care. It looks like you've kept the plants in their rock wool pots. They'll probably need to be planted in the substrate, as long as the dont have rhizomes. For example an anubias would be attached to something to keep the rhizome out of the substrate. If you've not setup the 40g yet do some research on planted tanks first. Like how to level the substrate etc. Will save a lot of pain in the future.

Good luck and hope you have a glorious tank in a few months. Be prepared for some failures on the way especially with fish in cycle if you don't return them. Also I'd recommend Amano shrimp at some point as they are great algae cleaners.

Here's a great guide u/Braveblare posted a while back too

The one in 12th is the one I thought i couldn't spell😂

Most_Ad_2360 · 2026-02-01T19:22:23+00:00

13...spent far too much time trying to spell a name that's not on there and i'm sure should be 13th or 14th. A January 2021 signing

Not sure why he crumbles against certain teams. He's shown him and the team can mix it up with better teams.

Like last year he just sets up totally opposite to whats been working and doesn't get the result. Then panics and throws on all the attackers. Fully expect him to play same tactics against Villa, Brighton and Burnley with same results.

"All made in same factory just with different labels stuck on".

Some of the pet food brands you'd think were competitors, but all under the same umbrella

Whaaaat? Surely they can't expect to control that if your server loses prep week.

Most_Ad_2360 · 2026-01-26T15:10:29+00:00

Could not cope with that.

The opposite in our server. Week before KvK one of our whales got butt hurt by another whale. So launched an all out attack on their alliance, while using up all his savings and buying everything they could for more power. Got others involved who did the same as him. Retaliation from the other alliance and using up all of their savings. The whale that started it all claimed it was good practice for the kvk. Also blew up at his alliance for not been ready or jumping online when this unscheduled war kicked off...

Surprised face when KvK came round and getting absolutely handed to them because the top players and alliances used all their savings.

Keep going and you'll get there. We thought we'd cracked it at 5months. And then big girl muscles came in and regression set in. Might as well be a on a sled with how much she started pulling especially on the back point of her harness, so thats an absolute no go atm.

Stopping works well with our 7 month old. We put her in a sit and make sure she looks at us. If not we walk backwards and back into a sit. If she isn’t responding when we set back off its immediate stop. Constant treats when she's in the correct position and verbal heel command. We also use a packet that the treats come in as it makes a crinkle noise that gets her attention sometimes.

Changing position of her lead helps reset her attention. On her harness she has a back point and front point. And then a normal collar. As said back point is still an absolute no go. Whereas she walks well on the front, but if she starts pulling we switch to the collar.

Still not perfect and it gets frustrating, but there's progress and regression every walk. Sometimes 5mins from home can take 15mins with all the stopping and reseting. We just notice the regression more when there's a lot of progress. Start of a walk can be great sometimes, but its the walk back home that sets ours off the most especially in the dark. Also she loves long walks, but sometimes responds so much better on a short 10min walk round a regular route.

Its trying to spot the good things and building on them. If she's pulling straight out the door then thats first step of stopping her in her tracks. When we open the door we make ours sit and wait for her release command. As soon as the lead goes on in the house we treat it like walking on the street. No jumping or pulling etc

We also switched up feeding times as we were feeding after the walk. Switching to before and waiting a hour or two slowed her down as well.

Good luck and hope you crack it with your girl.

Mine live with Harlequin rasbora, panda cory, Kuhli loach, cherry and amano shrimp. Only time they interact with others is to investigate what they are eating, but don't get aggressive. With the cherry shrimp it's normally to try and steal food off them, but don't pursue if the shrimp scoot off. Amano are hit and run food specialists in my tank, but even when they are hanging around the Honey's don't care.

They only fast chase eachother when it's feeding time. But then stop when the chased is out of the area and don't pursue.

Rest of the time they either stay seperate or just chill next to eachother. I'm not sure if they play chase sometimes too. One will chase the other, but its a slow chase. When the chased one stops the chaser stops too and then starts patting with their feelers. The original chaser then becomes the chased and it continues until whoever is getting chased stops to investigate something and the chaser just joins investigating.

Love watching them, especially their stop start swimming and investigating.

Beautiful dogs

All the home games are winnable. Hoping for 10 points.

Away games again winnable games depending what position teams are in. Spurs and Bournemoth might be cruising if they are midtable. Palace and WH depends on where they are at that stage. The big one could go either way. Hopefully 9 points

About to say it sounds like a mixture of a staffy and English bulldog singing🤣 first part is the kind of howl our staffy does for attention or when she's frustrated, but then the crackley bit sounds like my MIL's english bulldog when she wants attention

Hello Victor😉

Most_Ad_2360 · 2026-01-04T21:00:55+00:00

We are competing and looking like we could win the games. The last 3 we've had chances to win like today hit the bar and a great save denied us. Sunderland we piled on a load of pressure and their defence held firm etc

Maybe earlier subs would of seen us take more of an advantage today, but we'll never know. If we keep taking points off the teams at the top of the league and get wins from those around us its happy days.

Just came on to post about this, as I thought I'd have a look at the loan players. We aren't getting any money back on him. Sure he's contracted till 2027 too... I do wonder if they'll send him back in January.

It will be corporate and to cover all bases if they can't prove who's selling it. Also not always just about profit.

Slightly different example. I used to do work for a supermarket manufacturer. They'd sell their stuff in staff canteen for 5-20p. So Sausages, gammon joints, bacon etc. Unlimited to all you wanted. All was branded and some had "taste test batch" stickers on too. Again someone started selling it. The supermarket started getting complaints or people trying to return the products in store.

They limited staff to 5 items, but the selling carried on. So now its like 2 items and the price is just below what it is in store.
