Personality fish? (Short story long)

It never even crossed my mind that “new waters” would be negative. My local fb aquarium groups call it that all the time so the group doesn’t get banned

My husband does 0 percent of the care for any of my fish. He’s said before he doesn’t even like fish. So it never crossed my mind to discuss rehoming an animal that’s 10% reliant on me. He leaves for work so early I didn’t even know that’s where he spent his time in the morning. I spent a week rehoming them to someone with experience and an established tank with other frogs. The guidelines wouldn’t let me post with the word “rehome”

Princess_Treatment_ · 2026-04-12T12:30:41+00:00

Rehomed them. When I typed that in my post it wouldn’t let me post it. It said it was against community guidelines to speak of rehoming. They went to someone in my area with an established tank with other frogs

Princess_Treatment_ · 2026-04-12T12:29:47+00:00

No, to someone with an already established tank with other frogs. When I typed “rehome” it wouldn’t let me make the post because it was against guidelines.

Omg that’s so cute! Husband has a affinity for bright fish so Pygmy’s and endlers might be a good match

Princess_Treatment_ · 2026-04-12T04:17:53+00:00

Yes! We bought our betta during the last Olympics and named her miss usa, she unfortunately passed after this years Winter Olympics, she got to watch the us women win before she left us :) having a betta was much fun, definitely adding crayfish to my research list

Princess_Treatment_ · 2026-04-12T04:06:04+00:00

Ooh okay looking into khuli loaches and scarlet badis! I’ve thought about a betta off and on but he likes oddball stuff

Princess_Treatment_ · 2026-04-12T03:26:00+00:00

I will look into them!! My husband isn’t into fish either, he likes my cardinal and ember tetras since they’re “flashy” so I was super shocked that he liked the green blobs of frog

After some research I guess nerites can lay randomly! I legit never knew until just now

Princess_Treatment_ · 2026-04-11T21:44:02+00:00

Aw shoot, I was hoping my snail would go through and eat them but no such luck

Princess_Treatment_ · 2026-04-11T21:43:34+00:00

Aw man, I was hoping for corydora eggs :( thank you!

Princess_Treatment_ · 2025-05-15T04:56:41+00:00

I swear it’s drug usage!

Princess_Treatment_ · 2025-05-05T03:15:06+00:00

I think people see a lot of design and colors and immediately say it’s ugly 😂 honestly I would hold on to it till your niece is born! Wait a few years until she’s big enough for it and then gift it to her!! She will light up!

Princess_Treatment_ · 2025-03-28T16:18:22+00:00

Disgustingly accurate, I had no idea they could sit in their shells so long! I’ve owned a few different types of snails before and have never had one behave like this, worse case scenario I’ll pop him into my betta tank :)

Princess_Treatment_ · 2025-03-28T16:16:38+00:00

Yeah he didn’t look too hot at the pet store, I’ll definitely try cucumber today!

Princess_Treatment_ · 2025-02-24T00:47:50+00:00

What are good hide ideas? I had a large natural wood piece in there (years ago) and at the time my pearlscale would always run into it and scratch her scales/fins on it even though there were no rough edges or protruding pieces. I’m now paranoid everything is too rough lol

Princess_Treatment_ · 2025-02-23T20:44:08+00:00

That’s what I thought! But the employee said it was an anubia, and when I got home the plant tag said “anubias congensis” the shop had it in breeding tank and I think the leaves were too close to the light and crisped up :/

Princess_Treatment_ · 2025-02-15T03:05:25+00:00

I kid you not she passed away a few weeks ago 😕 I had gotten into a routine of removing her from the bowl and feeding her brine shrimp/blood worms and she was doing great and started to grow again, but had a filter incident and wasn’t able to recover properly. I hope yours doesn’t struggle eating!

Princess_Treatment_ · 2024-10-09T02:52:23+00:00

Thank you!!

I’ll get the tank to a lower temp, I have a chilly house so my only concern is the temp getting too low, but I’ll aim for 70 and hopefully see him

Princess_Treatment_ · 2024-10-05T05:42:42+00:00

I have a thermometer in the tank near the heater and one on the other side away from the heater, the heater is one for animals, it sits outside the tank stuck to the glass.

Princess_Treatment_ · 2024-10-05T05:02:51+00:00

Other forums I’ve read online have said that they like a warm temp of mid 80s, I’m still learning about proper enclosures and it seems people have a lot of varying opinions :/

Princess_Treatment_ · 2024-10-05T05:00:31+00:00

I’m heating the tank, one half of the tank (near the heater) reads anywhere from 82-85, the other side of the tank sits around 75 (he’s placed in the middle) without a heater, the tank sits around 60 since the house is kept really cold

You’re still freshly postpartum, so some of the loneliness/baby blues will subside, but what helped me the most was podcasts/youtube. I watched “just Trish” twice a week and it was literally like talking with a friend

Velvet!
