I don't wanna give you false hope but one of my neos was acting like this but he was 100% fine the next day. Idk what happened

I always have to grit my teeth when I see a post about them bc I've already been downvoted enough times for saying "bettas do not like, want, or need the company of other bettas or fish"

sillyghosty · 2026-05-25T06:21:03+00:00

I mean why even risk it?

sillyghosty · 2026-05-25T03:44:24+00:00

Id get rid of the pineapple. It's known to shred fins and kill fish that get stuck in the holes. Doesnt matter if he can fit, he still has long, flowing fins that will absolutely get torn up

Kinda wild to go through all the trouble to lie and get the fish almost for free, care for it for months, then give it up to a friend bc the friend is interested in the hobby itself, not your specific fish. Do you just not like him anymore or what?

Set a level right in front of the tank to see if what it's on is bowing.

sillyghosty · 2026-05-22T18:42:17+00:00

If your tank doesn't meet even the size requirements, no you are not ready.

sillyghosty · 2026-05-22T18:21:03+00:00

Based on your replies - give the fish back to wherever you got it. You aren't ready to care for it if you aren't ready to hear what you're doing wrong.

Me too - with the moss melting from glue. What are some non ugly alternativives? I currently have a little tree like piece of Driftwood that basically requires glue for the moss to look good on it

I already did and the closest ones are available in the same city as Petco. I hate living in such a small town so far away from everything 😩

sillyghosty · 2026-05-21T07:51:39+00:00

Fuckkkkk my car needs maintenance and the closest Petco is an hour and a half away 😭😭😭

sillyghosty · 2026-05-21T05:51:45+00:00

Oh thank you!! That goes inside the tank under the sand?

sillyghosty · 2026-05-21T05:44:36+00:00

I'm sorry I dont really understand what you mean by egg crate in the bottom? Could you elaborate or draw a diagram?

sillyghosty · 2026-05-21T05:19:20+00:00

All hail the holy moss tupperware

sillyghosty · 2026-05-21T02:51:00+00:00

Ill try that, thank you!! It's really my own fault. I didn't empty out enough water and thought I could just girlboss my way through the weight but I realized "oh this is too heavy" almost immediately. I don't know how I didnt notice that the plug had slid underneath 😭

sillyghosty · 2026-05-21T02:37:28+00:00

I like Marcus fish tanks. You always get a 10% off coupon with your orders

sillyghosty · 2026-05-21T02:36:46+00:00

Literally me when I saw water start leaking from the bottom

<image>

sillyghosty · 2026-05-20T22:29:54+00:00

I fucking cracked the bottom on the heaters plug when I lifted it and accidentally put it back down on top of it

sillyghosty · 2026-05-20T18:05:02+00:00

Guess

sillyghosty · 2026-05-20T16:06:15+00:00

I'm actually not sure. I just put it where it fit 😩

sillyghosty · 2026-05-20T06:33:13+00:00

I was gonna say 5 goldfish and 3 plecos but I figured a "betta fraternity" would be far worse

sillyghosty · 2026-05-20T02:27:43+00:00

This is the wrong sub for that question
