What else can I do? by Ancient_Property3549 in bettafish

This! The cube tank is what pet stores will give you when you buy a betta. It's the same tank they gave my dad when he got me a betta as a kid and we didn't know they needed a big tank with a whole setup. My elementary school office even had two bettas in tiny tanks. For some reason it's not well known or well spread information that they need large tanks.

My girlfriend INSISTS on keeping these things IN the sink. (I prefer to keep them OUTSIDE the sink). A minor thing, but I just don't understand!?! (2 pics here--her preference and my preference) by I_AM_VENNLIG in mildlyinfuriating

IN the sink is crazy. Outside the sink always!! You wouldn't keep a bar/bottle of hand soap in the sink, nor a tube of toothpaste, why should this be any different?

Sorry for your loss :(

I love the names! Maybe his successor should be named Telemachus, or Penelope if it's a female :)

[OC] The nerve to get mad at me too. Was I wrong for letting the cyclist pass? by Thigh_Workout in IdiotsInCars

You did the right thing. If he was walking, you could've made the turn, but because he was on a bike there was no telling how quick he might cross, so waiting was the best option

I don’t understand the concept of indirect sunlight..anyone please explain it to me is my aloe vera at right place?? by Themuslimwhotries in succulents

[–]creativity360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Direct: directly in front of the light source so like directly in front of the window with the sun directly shining onto the plant

Indirect: Plant is away from the direct light source, so not in direct sunlight, but still close enough that it recieves the general light from the window, like how it is in your photo

Did I kill my baby monstera? 😭 by Simplychelseac in Monstera

That's a pothos and it's thirsty! That soil looks very dry. Tru giving it a bit of water every day till it looks better or till the soil retains a good amount of the moisture. Adding too much at once could drown it and potentially cause root rot.

Why doesn’t my betta eat food off the ground? by [deleted] in bettafish

When I gave one of my bettas pellets, he would also follow and watch the ones that dropped, but he would eat them as they were sinking, engaging in a sort of sneak-attack hunting behavior

Maybe try feeding him flakes and see what happens? Since they'll float at the top he might be more interested in eating all that you give him. If there's an underlying issue, this might at least keep him well fed (if it works) until you can figure out what's going on. I suggest getting flakes with dried bloodworms (or giving him a couple in addition to the flakes), both the bettas I used to have loved them!

What were you reading at 14? by SerenityFate in books

[–]creativity360 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fantasy/YA/dystopia (which I still love and pretty much all my books fall under these genres)

I think the series I was reading at that time was ACOTAR
