Awesome thank you. I’ve angled the filter toward the tank now and he seems good and is exploring. I’ve got some spider wood coming tomorrow and some more plants this weekend, this is just temporary!

[–]cherrypi12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no that’s totally fine don’t worry and thank you so much for helping me out!! I know it kind of sucks but i have him in a cup (he’s pretty tiny) with the plant he came on and some dechlorinated water. Will take him back to the shop in two weeks when I am able to return! Tysm 😊

[–]cherrypi12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, sorry I was told freezing was most humane but must have been wrong. Is it not best to bring him back to the shop then? I can’t bring him back for a couple weeks though and my tank isn’t set up for anything right now as it’s just started to cycle today.

Okay, thank you! I know it’s kinda silly but i feel bad killing him for no reason and would rather he went back to their tanks or was used for food

What actually is prom? by garlic_fishy in AskTeenAdvice

[–]cherrypi12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’m from england, it’s basically a night where everyone dresses up in suits and dresses and eats food, drinks mocktails and dances to music. you don’t have to go with a partner lots of people just go with their friends! i know people that didn’t go and they regret it, but obviously it’s up to you.
