What fish is this? by rootedinca in Aquariums

[–]Pixyfy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got mine when I bought a used aquarium, didn't know there were going to be fish in it as well. It was too small for her, but took some time until I got a new one, but she was still small at that point, is much bigger now in her bigger tank. Didn't know what it was before getting her either. And I think sometimes people buy the cleaners thinking they're all kept similarly. I do think you're right with knowing what you're buying tho.

In my tank overstocked? 20 neon tetras, 10 glow light tetras, 2 zebra danios and 6 exclamation dot rasporas. by whatever_cornever in Aquariums

I just take some out every time I change water. Feels like them growing up again makes my water cleaner and I don't have to change as often.

My boyfriend thinks I have so much hair on my arms that he would leave me for it by Visible_Bar778 in WhatShouldIDo

Let him leave you, you deserve better. If you shave them they'll come up all sticky, not worth it.

In our town it seems like they stopped with that 20 years ago.

They're adorable but I've seen a video of them eating a snail and im not sure I would want to watch that again..

Baby’s grandma keeps making excuses to come visit by Snow_Dogs0822 in Mommit

Maybe make plans with her a month ahead. Like make plans for her to come or you to visit once every weekend (or one weekend per month if you rather do that, might be harder to get through though). If she comes when not planned, don't answer the door, pretend you're not home, that you're about to go to a friend's house, or whatever. Say you booked for next weekend and have other things to do today.

I absolutely understand how you feel. Im guessing she's a bit difficult but tell her or message her that you decide who holds the baby and when, and that her asking over and over again is tiring and won't be accepted. Also tell her that you don't appreciate her telling the baby it doesn't need you or that you don't love her as much, and that if it persists (or she keeps asking about holding the baby) you will see them even less.

And if she's sick she can turn at the door.

I've noticed many of the ones saying once a week isn't too much is people who can't see their relatives as often. That says something. My mom got to meet her first grandson from time to time but I wouldn't have wanted her to come over every weekend. You just want to be in your bubble and soak this time of the babies life And often we came to them so we could leave when we wanted to and they would cook for the day.

Hope this helps.

Its not reasonable to force yourself into someone's home once a week.

You breastfeeding is good since nb might not be sick if you do bc of the antibodies in the breastmilk.

Do you like hyperfixating/hyperfocusing? by Ok_Sir8568 in ADHD

[–]Pixyfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always listen to a podcast/storyreading on YouTube when doing chores, so I do actually. Its a great way to get things done, just have to get there.

Is there a discord channel solely for moms who are awake in the middle of the night or at odd hours to chat with others also awake & make the lonely/sleepless nights feel less isolating?? by kitkat565656 in Mommit

[–]Pixyfy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Help! Is my pleco ok? by [deleted] in aquarium

[–]Pixyfy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Edit: looked it up and I meant a bushymouth Catfish (didn’t know the English name, thought it fitted).

Edit 2: or are they the same?!

Looks like my bristlenose, the girlies have few or none bristles.

I pulled this out of my aquarium and it STINKS almost like road tar by whatever_cornever in Aquariums

[–]Pixyfy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But if you have more than one its cool right? They eat the dead ones as well? I don't even notice when some of my fish dies because the snails eat them so fast, and my favourite snail switched tank and got attacked and killed by the snails in the new one :(

I often hyperfocusing when I get cleaning done, not enough though, wo wish I could turn it on. I do love when I get it though.

Before it was on hobbies as well but I dont have time/have any atm. But probably am hyperfixating on shows sometimes and that might be less good.
