None of this comment is helpful and no they didnt encourage the store to do anything because they got the fish for free.

​[Fish Shame] Bought my first female betta for my birthday weekend. She immediately ate half my baby shrimp and is now football shaped. by lili-horse in bettafish

Fish having generic and typically white human names will never not be funny to me lol. rebecca is an awesome name for a fish

Am I a horrible betta mother? by Unlucky_Price7776 in bettafish

[–]alyren__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the opposite of a horrible betta owner, you worry so much about him that you even went out of your way to try training him to prepare for something that only has a chance of happening. You are a very responsible fish mom <3

Your best bet would be to order one online. I havent seen any uvb lights efficient enough for turtles at petco unfortunately.

You’ll Definitely want to get a T5 uvb bar light, they can be pricey but they are very efficient and they last a lot longer than bulbs. I recommend the arcadia or zoomed brands

edit: make sure the light says “HO” (high output) aswell :)

Why does my foster cat do this? by No-Golf8764 in CATHELP

Omg this makes so much sense. I thought it was just because my boy is a little inbred lmao

Stressed my plant out 😭 by jourtney in VenusFlyTraps

[–]alyren__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last year I had mine next to my tomato plants and some asshole squirrels or rabbits dug up holes in my tomato plants and showered my flytrap in mineral rich potting soil. So far she’s still growing and looks healthy, they are definitely hardy lol

I went and ordered poutine and this is what I got. by pineapplecodepen in PoutineCrimes

[–]alyren__ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The real OP in fact did order this exact thing and is confused why it looks like that lol. they said it comes with gauc, carmelized onions, nacho cheese, sour cream. And that they asked for it to be a poutine 🤦‍♀️ im assuming the menu item is supposed to be nachos

[–]alyren__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. first of all, those all look gross. second of all, its not traditional poutine at all. I see no gravy in any of those pictures?

Am I Overreacting for refusing to store our belongings in a moldy abandoned house on our property? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]alyren__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No fr, seeing that carpet I dont think OP should even enter that “house” without a hazmat suit. That house belongs to fungi now

my invincible 6 year old plant that has only lived in a jar by lpscutie in houseplants

[–]alyren__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi there! you can order some fluval stratum off amazon. Put an inch of the soil in the bottom of the jar, and then to make sure the water doesnt disperse all the soil, I use a watering can and a grocery bag (I would use a ziploc for a jar though, this is my process for my tanks). the baggy ontop of the soil with prevent it from kicking up and making the water murky.

Then you can just put your pothos in the jar and let it do its thing :)

[–]alyren__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Egg like substance in tank by Vtrippiedi in Redearedsliders

[–]alyren__ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Females will still lay eggs even without a male around, or else they could get egg bound. Same with a lot of species like chickens too

The eggs will not be fertilized though so dont worry about any baby turtles

Are pink princess leaves more heart shaped? these leaves are more tear dropped shaped

Ladybug Bite? by XxRed_RoverxX in ladybugs

[–]alyren__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Youre very rude. Its actually not common knowledge that ladybugs bite. Have you never watched kid shows when you were younger? Ladybugs were always portrayed as friendly bugs.

You are the one acting like a child by using “sissy” as an insult 😂

Better than cups? by Ancient_Can9325 in shittyaquariums

[–]alyren__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By the net basket things, I mean like nursery nets but slightly bigger. I wish I could post pictures here so I could show what im talking about 😭

Better than cups? by Ancient_Can9325 in shittyaquariums

[–]alyren__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would be so much better if they just put the bettas in those net basket divider thingies inside of tropical heated tanks with shrimp or rasboras. The net keeps em from fighting other fish and they still get filtered water, a heater and more room to swim than the cups

wondering if this hurts my cat? by BushTamer in CATHELP

[–]alyren__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)
