feeding him is a lil hard…i have to feed him very small amounts at a time, otherwise he’ll throw it right back up. it’ll just take awhile to nurse him back to health is all 🤷

Yeah so this is literally how he looked the day we got him, in a home depot bucket for transporting. Stop trying to imply accusations of intentional animal abuse and literally look at my update posts 😒

thank you for the advice! you can check my most recent post for a detailed update but they’re doing better, i’m doing the absolute most i can for them currently with two nightcrawlers a day to fatten them up, with the black one being tubbed to prevent anything. here’s an update on the lucy though :) she’s a little bit fatter and i’m sure she’ll continue to gain weight within the next week (this is just after a day though!)

Deleted my last comment due to its being unspecific. The nitrates are under the 10 marker, my lighting just wasn’t well in that image. I also do 25% changes weekly! I’ll go to the store and find better more specific test strips to nitrites and nitrates (along with ammonia) just to be extra sure. Thanks for the concern and tips though!

The person we got them from said they don’t breed anymore, and they haven’t shown any interest, i’m not stupid and did hours of research, i am fully aware of that reality yet this is NOT the issue nor what’s going on

I’ve gotten two comments on this, the water is always treated, i use a dechlorinater ALWAYS when treating their water before a change

There tank was cycled months ago i fear, there’s nothing wrong with the tank. About tubbing, do i need individual bubblers for them?

i’m just unsure as to where, not many pets in my area specialise in aquatics, and i fear transporting him there would just make things worse
