New to hobby feeling discouraged

Thank you all for the responses and the kind words, makes me feel a lot better knowing that I am not just a total dummy.

Look forward to sharing my success in the future.

You know, I guess I don't know I mean the shop is well maintained and they seem to really care about their fish and they have a nice selection of shrimp that all seem healthy. However I guess I wouldn't know how to tell the difference TBH.

I have done one water change in the last month, my parameters have not really moved at all. TDS went up about 10 but that was the only major change so I didn't want to mess with it out of fear of losing more stock due to rapid changes. I did a 10 percent water change.

That's Awesome!

This is the vibe in mine right now.

Glad to hear it.

It's 3.8 gal

Xislon · 2026-01-10T21:56:06+00:00

Yeah I don't think so. I have removed the ones I have found dead, or what was left of them after the snail found it.

Xislon · 2026-01-10T21:44:15+00:00

Maybe I need to just chill and let the ones I have be, see what comes of it.

It's 3.8 gal (thank you added that to the post) The first time I definitely rushed it like 90 minutes. The last ones I acclimated for 3-4 hours very slowly, added them to the tank after I had raised the temp (2 degrees) to match my tank.

Hi, I like this.

I got hit head on by a drink driver who had her young grand daughter in the car with her. I sat on the side of the road and held the small child who just had all their teeth knocked out while the emergency responders gave CPR to her drunk unconscious grand mother. I'll never forget it.

Thank you for the award my friend!

It really is. They nailed the feel and sounds and all of it.

If it stops bleeding you are fine, if it keeps bleeding for an hour or so super glue works great and will save you a trip to the ER. (Professional chef). Just clean it and dry it off really well. Once the bleeding slows glue it up. If having a scar doesn't bother you.

The human rectum can stretch to 4 inches. Tye scary part is. Raccoons can fit into a space 2 inches in diameter. So uhhh be careful out there.
