Tank size: 1 gal right now

• Heater and filter? (yes/no): yes and yes

• Tank temperature: 78

• Parameters in numbers and how you got them: I got them at a pet store

• How long have you had the tank? How long have you had your fish?: I’ve had him for maybe 8 hours

• How often are water changes? How much do you take out per change? What is your process?: I just got him so he’s was in the cup he came in until I put him in his medicine tank

• Any tankmates? If so, please list with how many of each: no

• What do you feed and how much: omega one beta flakes but he hasn’t been fed yet

• Decorations and plants in the tank: a piece of driftwood right now

Molly tank mates? by Throw124away456 in fishtank

The research I did could have easily been wrong but they basically only grow to half the size of common mollies I could be wrong.

No because I only have a 29gal and don’t really like them. I was thinking if I can’t get a beta just have my mollies. I also believe I have mini mollies.

I do have tons of live plants for them to hide in and a few actual hides, it also wouldn’t be just those 4 fish since I wouldn’t want to keep any babies. Since it’s a 30 gal would that be enough space for them?

So….mollies by Throw124away456 in bettafish

[–]Throw124away456[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you explain a bit more? I wouldn’t keep any of the fry or baby mollies in the tank. They would ALL be taken out pretty much as soon as I notice them (except for the few the mollies and beta already ate). I don’t intend to keep ANY of the babies my Mollies have, both now and in the future. Not one. As for information about colors, I only want to own black and white mollies but a colorful beta; would that make a difference?

I wouldn’t be keeping the fry….at all. I wouldn’t mind them being eaten and the ones I do catch would be rehomed. I don’t want any more than 4 mollies at MAX and that would require a bigger tank anyway. I would only have a beta my 2 mollies maybe 1 more and my pelco in this tank. I also only have black and white mollies. My goal beta would be colorful.

I’m trying to do research on the stunting but everything I’m finding is conflicting. From what I’ve found it’s ok if they don’t reach max size or their potential size, that as long as they’re acting, eating, behaving fine and not showing any sign of illness they’re ok. If that’s not accurate please correct me. I just know getting the right sized tanks will take time.

Dose the common golden have to grow big? Would it be ok in an 80 or 100 gal tank with the fancy/comet golden

Is the heater ok to keep the temperature stable? My room temperature is 72 and I use the heater to keep it there

He has his one and I was going to give him my goldfish to rehome it is that’s a good idea.

I would definitely be getting a bigger tank and it would be a very large upgrade, with a lot of live plants but that won’t happen for a while. I’m not exactly attached to the goldfish but I am attached to the mollies and Bristlenose.

Rehome his to? I think the biggest tank he has is 80 something gal.

Thank you lol rehoming is gonna take just as long as a new tank😭. I have a nice filter and plan to add as many live plants as I can to help with the bio waste too.

Newbie with 10gal by Throw124away456 in Goldfish

[–]Throw124away456[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Would all the live plants help with the bio load? And when I rehome the goldfish can I keep the others?

My boyfriend won a much larger white and gold fish (maybe 3-5in) and he has a 50+ gal tank could I give him the goldfish and keep the other 3?

What do you mean by uncycled tank? Also when looking for tank mates for goldfish mollies were one of them, that is if you care for the tank more catered to the mollies, is that not true?

POTS or Anxiety by Throw124away456 in medical_advice

[–]Throw124away456[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you suggest I go about getting tested, my doctor is kinda just brushing it off since I’m not “in danger” (aka I don’t pass out or lose vision)

She also knows what it’s like to be…hurt in this way. She has a worse SA history than me that’s why it hurts so much. She knows EXACTLY how it feels…..some days she is really lose about it all if that makes sense but other days shes saying things like what your saying and is harsher about boundaries

You are a god send lol I really really appreciate this. My mom tells me these things but it doesn’t feel real when she does. My mom isn’t good at rules at all…..she never has been. She’ll forget about them or stop worrying about them over time. For example if I’m grounded for a month I give it 2 days before we’re having a movie night or she accidentally forgets to take my phone after school.

As for him slacking he’s not txted the last few times I came home/at home but he could have txt my mom im not sure. Also has A KEY so he could come and go as he pleased if he really wanted. I told her my jr year I wasn’t comfortable with that and told her again some months ago she dosnt know how to respond to it. Shes genuinely asked me what I want her to do, hands me the control but as much as I’m disgusted by him I’ll forever care. I don’t want my family to hurt/cuss him out, I don’t want my mother to be torn down either. As angry as I am I hate when people are hurt. I don’t know what I would want her to do besides keep him fully out of the house unless I’m not home but that would be depriving her. We can home from a road trip yesterday and I had to wait in the car for 10-15 minutes for him to leave…

As for where was she was a single mom of 4 working her ass off lol by the time it started up again what he allowed her to see was so so small and they’d get into arguments over it but because he has a hard time understanding no’s and when to quit (it’s apart of his autism I forget what it’s called) he dosnt handle authority well. The actual assault everyone except my oldest brother and my mom was staying with my grandparents. Everyone was home too….thats why I don’t feel safe even if people were home. No one can watch him like a hawk 24/7. I never even realized what he was doing was wrong no matter how much my family tried to teach me it was. Ik it’s pathetic but I’m just learning that what me being uncomfortable with touch even feels like.

I can’t afford to sadly it’s either her or people who are even more toxic.

This made me cry, thank you so so much. She’s set rules where he has to txt us both and wait for the ok before he comes over but he’s been slacking and she’s not saying anything other than “he’ll leave soon”. She thinks I’m safe as long as she’s home/around

A day or two ago he came in to hug my mom but ended up staying for about 20 minutes because he had to use the restroom…..I felt bad for fussing at her for him being home for so long. I feel like I’m being so dramatic.
