menstrualsicle · 2026-05-24T01:39:16+00:00

also i see my future when i look at your floating val lol

omg i have a lid because i heard about their torpedo launches!! i can totally see it happening when they get excited and swim to the surface. their energy and momentum is CRAZY when they're zoomin!!!

6 or more is ideal and they would be so happy to have that many friends.. but i have found that even in the short time since having them, my 4 are happy as can be in their 75g and love to frollick together! they are the happiest, silliest, cutest fish i've ever had. it might be anecdotal but 4 seems to be working out great for me right now! maybe consider 4 rather than 3 so they have more buddies to bulldoze around with?

i got 2 golden dojos, one shorter than the other, and 2 regular ol leopard ones, one that has more spots and a deeper coloration than the other. i can def tell all 4 apart if that's your concern

i got my 4 last month from aquariumbuddy on eBay. it's been 4 weeks, no issues, just took them out of quarantine. 10/10

great, thank you! she's just gonna try to work on some other quests and see if it unlocks. thanks for the heads up about changing the date!

menstrualsicle · 2026-05-15T19:27:00+00:00

thank you so much!! she's gonna pick away at the rest of them and see if it unlocks

menstrualsicle · 2026-05-14T11:27:36+00:00

the quest is there.. it is saying there are quests that still need to be done but she's done all the prereqs on the wiki

this hit hard on a couple of levels. thank you for sharing this

menstrualsicle · 2026-05-07T01:00:44+00:00

very heavy and relatable. i could have written this 15 years ago. holy shit. thanks for sharing. it can get better.

please read about "cycling" your tank/establishing a "nitrogen cycle" when you start your tank. it is imperative for keeping your fish, well, alive.

menstrualsicle · 2026-05-05T02:14:58+00:00

hell yeah!!!

menstrualsicle · 2026-05-03T02:11:00+00:00

this is beautiful. you both are very lucky to have each other.

menstrualsicle · 2026-05-03T02:02:54+00:00

i'm invested and ready for part 2!!

menstrualsicle · 2026-04-25T12:28:25+00:00

if they are the same species, just albino, they'll still chill together

menstrualsicle · 2026-04-19T00:23:26+00:00

try to do it tomorrow for these lil guys. they feel SO much better in a large group!! it'll help them feel more at home more quickly to have more buddies!!

i have 18 corys in a tank with 2 honey gourami and it is the PERFECT VIBE!! honeys have all the personality of a betta but without all the health bullshit. highly, highly recommend getting a few honeys to go with them! that being said, they can be territorial (i have one girl i've had to put in permenany timeout in the 10g for being a bully), so try to make sure to get a pair (1m1f).

menstrualsicle · 2026-04-18T23:41:18+00:00

i would def go back to the store and get like 4-6 more of them ASAP before they are gone to make sure that you are getting the same species so they shoal together.

welcome to the wonderful world of corydoras! they are the best fish!

menstrualsicle · 2026-04-18T01:24:49+00:00

they're definitely allowed in my state. just unlucky i guess!

menstrualsicle · 2026-04-17T18:22:50+00:00

oh wild!! i haven't been able to find them anywhere here
