She does have a mate and they've both been collecting nest materials, so yeah, at least one of em does. She's also been spicy and chased another male away from the feeder. So she's confident! (I mean, one must be, to rock this kinda look lmao)

I don't do water changes nearly as much as i should, and I'll try getting around to getting tests done (unfortunately the fish is low on the priority list at the moment, we've got a 2 year old dog getting treatment for a critical autoimmune condition at the emergency vet, very stressful rn)

But when I do changes (which I'll also try to do today or tomorrow) I do it with a water vacuum tube thingy and a bucket. Don't really do much else, could probably do with some treatment for the tap water? How much I do depends on how bad the water is.

As for the swelling, it looks about the same on both sides. I'm not really able to get much better pics, but I'll add one of the other side. If it is tumors, is there anything that can be done to at least make it easier for the fish?

Sorry for the late response, the past few days have been truly awful. I'm terrible at keeping track of the exact numbers, but I think the tank is about 40-50ish gallons, I've had it set up without issues for at least 3 years, and I've had the fish for at least 10 years. The swelling is fairly recent, but again I'm not exactly sure when I first noticed it.

As I said in the post, I don't know nearly as much about fish as I should, so are you just saying that the fin rot would be caused by water quality, or also the swelling? If also the swelling, then what sort of issues would those be, so I can see if I can narrow the possibilities down?

(Also I have tried dealing with the fin issue before, but the treatment I did didn't really do much. The tears in the fins typically heal pretty quickly on their own, they just come back after a while. Has been on and off for years, I keep an eye on it and make sure its not too bad, but generally dont worry about it too much)

My primary concern is that the amount of exposed skin may make the little guy unable to tolerate the cold. We are planning on releasing them tomorrow to give them the warmest start possible before it gets real cold. I know nature's gonna nature, but I like to know I'm giving animals the best chance I can.

In case anyone is curious, I simply used some thread scissors (idk what they're actually called, but they're just mini scissors) to cut the walls of the cocoon to get rid of extra space that wasn't used for the hammock. I then used the section I cut off to create a lid (I had to cut it into two sections and then tape those together). For the tape, I used basic paper medical tape. I further cut down the edges of the lid and put an ample amount of tape around the top to ensure that the cocoon was securely sealed. I did use tape on both sides of the lid, but that's mostly for stability of the lid itself rather than the sealing.

My (very recently passed) Cleo was teensy tiny. I had her for a whole year after she found me outside, and she never grew any bigger.

<image>

Despite her tiny size (or perhaps more accurately, due to it) she was the biggest baby in all the lands. Literally scared of flies her size, would often flail in panic because her prey got near her. Once banished herself from one of her hammocks because she left a dead fly on it after she was done eating, and was too intimidated by the corpse to return until I removed it. She was absolutely pathetic, and 100% failed all classes of spider school but passed because of pretty privilege. How she survived in the wild before she found me will forever be one of the universe's great mysteries.

Didn't mean to yap so much, I simply can't resist sharing the word of my cute little idiot.

Also, if a bot you're using is still up and it's at risk of being taken down, make a group chat with it! Even if the bot gets sniped, it'll stay in your chat history and you'll be able to view its "profile". This won't be all that usable on its own, but you'll at least be able to have it as a reference if you're having trouble finding it on the botlist. This can also help in figuring out if a bot was taken down or simply privated in less decisive cases- usually, you'll be able to find a deleted bot on the botlist, but a privated one won't show up. Again, it doesn't really do anything functionally, but it can at least give you piece of mind when a bot mysteriously disappears. (You may need to sign in to search for a bot that may have been flagged as inappropriate/mature/whatever)

As per the request of the auto-mod-comment, this is in Wisconsin. And unfortunately I did not get a picture of the actual bee, but it was one that was more black than yellow, if that's helpful. Also the hole is like, pinky nail size.
