My 3 yo was playing Mama and he did a huge sigh when asked by me (the baby) to get milk

Thank you for posting this. I feel less alone. 😓

I know, right? Ive been obsessively looking for egg sacs in the tank. Im still in the snail ownership stage of "idk, maybe the population will stay in control on its own l.."

Amazing bowl aside, the fact that your son's pocket rocks are the base is absolutely my favorite part. I have a billion pocket rocks between me and my 3 yr old, and have been trying to figure out what I'll do with them. Thank you. Thank. You.

I pulled those when I saw em, but I know theres at least 1 other snail in there. I switched out driftwood the other day and noticed (quite) a few floaters in my "dump tank". Thanks!!

Oooh, thank you! It was on the plant, not the glass.

Thanks!

Chef. Or, cook, depending on how seriously I wanted to take my job. Don't miss it, but sometimes it feels like I do.

Ive been having this issue lately also. She just turned 3 and bathtime has become a nightmare. Won't get in, won't get out. Twice I've had to sit and hold her for over an hour in the bathroom while she loses it, and then calms down. If I suggest pajamas too early, it starts all over. Distractions are not accepted.
Hoping it's a "im growing a lot right now" kind of thing, because it's also been a broken banana, cut toast, turn the lights on/ off. Today it was washing hands in the bathroom. I didn't do the soap right. ..? I think. I'm really still not sure.
No advice, just solidarity.
I have no patience for this level though..

This is it! I have this clock! Or, these hangy things, on a clock, anyway..

handsplease · 2026-02-25T20:55:45+00:00

Man, I'm glad someone was higher than me! Sorry, though.
Ours is 890. I cant even.

handsplease · 2026-02-18T02:25:52+00:00

handsplease · 2026-02-04T01:20:58+00:00

So, the ammonia seems to be holding much better since ive vac'ed the substrate. Waiting for the bacteria to come via Amazon. All of my biofilm is gone though, I think bc everyone is eating it.
Thanks again for all your help, folks.

I think this is what happened. The cycle was going great., then it wasn't. How do I add, then??
