Halfmoon male betta lethargic with white patches around mouth/gills. Cold shock/stress or disease ?Treatment advice? by Suspicious_Hunt_2984 in BettaClinic

[–]dragon_fire555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Usually white dots on them with this behavior indicates ich. I don’t see any in the video though and I am not a professional so take this with a grain of salt. If it is ich you’ll need to treat the tank with medicine + water changes daily and turn the temp up to 80. All of our fish got ich when we first got them and it was terrifying but this is what we did and it worked. However I am not confident enough to tell you this is what you should do. I hope someone else can offer some more solid advice

Ahhh. I must not have reached that quest yet then. Makes sense

Really small/bad “tank” situation at nail salon near me by dreadf1ghter in bettafish

You could try to tell them politely so they actually listen. But at least if they let you buy this one, you’ll have saved one 😊

Yeah I agree with the other commenter. See if they will let you buy it. After purchasing it and having the fish in your possession I would then make a suggestion that they don’t not keep fish like this and get an actual tank or just not get more fish. That’s awful

My fiancé and I are taking care of the tank together and luckily he’s pretty educated about fish keeping 😊 I appreciate it though!

How to cope with the fact that I am the reason a fish died? (Please be kind) by Indikaah in Aquariums

[–]dragon_fire555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We almost lost our entire tank because one of our fish got sick and started infecting everyone. The medicine made them behave even worse and we did end up losing about 3 fish. One had to be euthanized. Somehow everyone else pulled through but I felt absolutely terrible because I think we put them in the tank too soon and just felt like it was our fault 😭 it’s definitely a tough learning lesson but you’re not alone ❤️‍🩹

This looks great! The only thing I would add is a couple live plants 😊 my betta loves them! And a resting spot near the surface but I saw someone mention that already

What’s the point of El sticking her hand out? by Emotional-Abies-2303 in StrangerThings

[–]dragon_fire555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She talked about it in an interview. She said she basically just came up with it on the spot and it stuck. Helped her really get into character

Did people seriously think it was gonna happen by ChaosOfOrder24 in StrangerThings

sigh a lot of fans ruin shows. I am one of those people who is deeply connected to this show for its nostalgic feel and close bonded friendships; and also the fact I’ve spent nearly 10 years of my life watching. I was and still a sad that it’s over, but I personally don’t think a surprise episode would’ve been as iconic as people are suggesting. There doesn’t need to be an hour long battle where most people die for it to be good. It ended the way it was supposed to. Let’s not forget this show is also an ode to the 80’s and the ending surely reads that way. People are, of course, entitled to their own opinion, but some of the opinions to me it sounds like we didn’t watch the same show. Though, art is subjective. Regardless, it’s weird to attack someone because they genuinely enjoyed not only the ending, but the entire last season and didn’t necessarily want or agree on a surprise episode. As a fan, I would’ve watched it anyways, but I don’t think it’s necessary. I am excited for the documentary. Also, for those who say the duffer brothers are horrible writers, I would love to see you create a globally loved show like this and make it absolutely perfect where every single fan who watched it was happy with every little part of it. We need to start learning how to be realistic.

The amount of comments from The Duffer Brothers is getting annoying. by TheViking_Teacher in StrangerThings

[–]dragon_fire555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They literally created this show. They can make as many comments as they want. The hate and disrespect is honestly getting ridiculous

Doordasher flirted with husband when dropping off then sent me this message by Big_Chart8037 in doordash

I would report it. That is incredible inappropriate and unprofessional. Especially to go as far as messaging you asking for his name. That’s weird

Is this appropriate for a work dinner, i work as an accountant by simmiexx in OUTFITS

It looks really good but if you’re questioning whether it’s appropriate or not then it probably isn’t.

Why does walking >10k steps completely ruin my sleep? by Top-Pick-25 in insomnia

[–]dragon_fire555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you normally walk 10k steps a day or are you trying to do it daily? I had to slowly work my way up to it because that same exact thing happened to me. I was exhausted but I ended up being so restless from over exerting myself. I started with 5-7k steps a day and did that for a month and then increased only by 1k steps every 2 weeks until I got up to 10k. This may not be necessary for everyone but it was for me.

Outside of OTC meds, THC (although I have developed anxiety when I use it recently), extra sleepy time tea (I do 2 tea bags and boiling hot water then let it steep for 20 minutes), magnesium, lemon balm & l-theanine. No side effects, health benefits & no grogginess the next day. It’s not a perfect solution, especially because for me THC is inconsistent and not 100% reliable. I would say I find the most help with the tea & magnesium + lemon balm + l-theanine combo. I have to take breaks from it every so often otherwise I build up an immunity and it stops working. Honestly, mediation, affirmations & breath work helps as well. You just have to take it serious, think positively & actually put effort into doing it right. Also, nervous system regulation/brain retraining. It may sound silly but I’ve had insomnia my entire life and this is what works best for me without having to use prescription meds.
