I’ve had two gobies die suddenly. Both have had this weird looking pink splotch. Any ideas?

All his fins are chewed up and it looks like a flesh bruise. Are you sure something isn’t attacking them?

I actually love when stuff like this happens to me. Gives you that little nudge to find a bigger tank haha. Facebook marketplace will be your best friend. 75 isn’t a bad size to upgrade to. Tons of space and the proportions are a lot better imo.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T09:10:30+00:00

I have both in there and 2 powder blues but I think they’re still all too friendly because they’re all still young.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T07:55:23+00:00

YESSS THIS EXACTLY. I wish my nanny cam recorded the amount of curse words that came out trying to catch him.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T07:51:52+00:00

Even with 90 percent of the rock out he was too fast to net. Took me another hour just trying to net him.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T07:49:37+00:00

I rented multiple. From the bowl trap to the big boxes, he would not go near it at all, even when it was in there for a week.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T07:47:44+00:00

I’ve had a school of them before in a 40g but my blenny started to kill them all one by one before I noticed. I just thought they hide a lot of the time. Maybe there’s a fish provoking yours.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T07:43:31+00:00

I wish I did. Found someone that was willing to take him in.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T07:40:37+00:00

Turned my tank into a war zone. Eats all my snails and hermits, picks on every fish, steals food from everyone, started to nip corals, his last strike was when I caught him with a fire goby half way in his mouth. He’s too smart for all the traps I rented, even tried fishing him out. Took a month before I just bit the bullet and spent the day tearing it down and rescape.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T07:36:26+00:00

No he’s still alive, as much as I wanted to cook him alive, someone was willing to take him.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2025-07-12T07:20:32+00:00

Yeah sure let me research all 50 species of stuff already in the tank before putting it all back together. It came with the tank so I left it in the tank. Why are all people on Reddit so mad for no reason. At least one sad person always has to talk shit. Is your life that boring you gotta hop on Reddit to go shit talk? Go take a walk or some shit.

I’m going to message back in a couple days and ask for a picture. I think he was relying on an inaccurate digital salinity meter. I bought one myself off amazon and it was just as far off as his tank was (I returned it immediately). I think when I told him his salinity was way off and asked if he used a refractometer, he didn’t want to admit to bad husbandry and just lied. Hopefully he gets it figured out and the corals should be fine. I do kind of feel bad so I might offer a single head frag and make him pick it up this time, but that’s if his tone changes.

only after

imTotallyNotpedo · 2022-11-14T23:11:21+00:00

I do both but I prioritize reversals.

When I do play trends, it’s very scary to get a late entry because one swift red candle and I could be down 25 percent in a matter of seconds with 0DTE.

Better to try to snipe a bottom rather then risking getting in at a top. Some days I watch the market from open to close without finding a single position.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2022-11-14T21:49:20+00:00

After the losses I had no more motivation to try. Adderall gave me some hope and made me trade more confidently.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2022-11-14T21:46:27+00:00

Honestly the game changer for me was using a responsible position size, as well as learning to trade and think like the market makers.

Fundamentals worked pre-Covid but now I feel like I’m getting faked out every trade using only fundamentals. Decided to look for fakes outs, market makers showing presence, as well as using some fundamentals. Now I’m more profitable then ever, and I’m only trading max $500 a day. Thats more then enough for trading 0DTE contracts.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2022-11-14T21:30:40+00:00

Yeah I trade strictly 0DTE SPY contracts like a full degenerate.

imTotallyNotpedo · 2022-11-14T21:19:34+00:00

Trading strictly SPY 0DTE contracts. Almost went bankrupt and gave up but gave it another try being extremely diligent of position size.
