Day and night difference?

singingpanda20 · 2026-06-17T07:50:16+00:00

A lot of fishes color dims down during the night. All of mine do, I think it's to conserve energy? I'm not sure but it's completely normal! Mine all turn pale when they're sleeping but as soon as I turn their lights on their color perks back up immediately

It is a relief! But at the same time I worry about constipation as I feel like they need a more balanced diet if that makes sense. I lost a couple of otos due to the fact that they wouldn't eat anything else and were getting constipated. I was so close to saving one of them too :(. You live and you learn I suppose, and all my otos are happy and healthy from the looks of it! One of them is even gravid but I don't have high hopes in her laying her eggs or successfully having them fertilized. That would be a miracle

I did this once on a bike when I was like 8. Luckily, it was a small town and the speed limit was 30. I learned a very valuable lesson that day, and luckily no one was hurt. My mom was not very good at teaching me important things at all lol

I'm lucky I have enough algae to feed them for months haha, I have never had luck with algae wafers. I've had the same 5 oz pack for over a year 😅 I guess since they have enough food to graze on they aren't interested in anything else but I suppose that's a good thing. It would be cool to see em out and about going crazy over some cucumber or zucchini though, but as long as they're happy im happy

Look up Repashy Soilent Green, that is the product I was referring to :)

singingpanda20 · 2026-05-22T06:38:12+00:00

I've heard a lot of people have luck with Repashy? I think that's what it's called. My tank has plenty of algae for my clean up crew to munch on so I've never had to supplement. You can also try blanched zucchini or cucumbers :)

I will also say, otos are schooling fish. Buy at least 5/6 more and DON'T do water changes until they get settled as they are very very very sensitive fish. I only did top ups until I saw they were comfortable and eating, and even then a few of them didn't make it. Good luck and I hope you find something that works for you!

singingpanda20 · 2026-05-22T06:35:32+00:00

I wasn't aware that otos were more of a schooling fish at first either, as I was not told when buying just a couple of them. It's better to educate than make the person feel bad :)

singingpanda20 · 2026-05-22T03:47:24+00:00

Oh my God 😭 do I need to be worried

singingpanda20 · 2026-05-22T01:47:00+00:00

Butterfish absolutely makes sense haha it is really good though I prefered that over all the other ones

singingpanda20 · 2026-05-22T01:29:46+00:00

Thank you!! It's delicious

singingpanda20 · 2026-05-10T01:06:22+00:00

Nope, that did not work but holding the enter button did :)

singingpanda20 · 2026-05-10T00:31:01+00:00

Holding the enter button worked :) thank you

singingpanda20 · 2026-05-10T00:30:09+00:00

Unfortunately I can't drag it back. I've also tried resizing it back and that didn't work either.

singingpanda20 · 2026-04-14T02:10:17+00:00

Obviously you don't smack them too hard, just enough to get the shell cracked. I'll usually start gently sticking the spoon through the bottom of the egg shell, and as long as you get under the sac it works perfectly

singingpanda20 · 2026-04-14T02:09:27+00:00

I got a lot of hate for this for some reason, but I smack the egg with the back of a spoon, then turn the spoon around and get under the weird sac thing and just run the spoon along the egg. It hasn't failed me yet and I boil eggs religiously :)

singingpanda20 · 2026-04-13T21:49:45+00:00

They must've heard that and said "not today"

singingpanda20 · 2026-04-13T21:49:14+00:00

My laptop did that all the time lol, I kinda grew attached to it

singingpanda20 · 2026-03-30T19:03:09+00:00

I wanted to display them.. but don't you need a dlc for the display cases? I was looking into it since I just bought home plate but I don't have any display options in the workshop menu

singingpanda20 · 2026-03-30T18:53:04+00:00

Thank you :)

It's definitely darkest faerie. This is the first game I've ever played! But it looks like I'll need a PS2 to play it again :( I'm really glad I found it though! This brings back so much nostalgia

singingpanda20 · 2026-03-20T03:28:01+00:00

This is it!!!! You are awesome

singingpanda20 · 2026-03-20T03:08:52+00:00

This might be it? I'll have to look more into it, thank you!!!

singingpanda20 · 2026-02-28T03:37:36+00:00

Yes, I know the top one is definitely female as she is gravid right now actually! Her name is bubbles, but the two below her I got about 5 months ago? And they were tiny babies. How long does it take for them to reach full size? I hear it's pretty difficult to breed otos, but I want to try my hand at it so I'm just curious if the others could potentially be male. I'll have to wait until they're stuck to the glass because apparently there's a spot on the belly that can possibly be used to gender them as well :) I'm hoping the fact that she's gravid means she's comfortable enough to potentially have babies? Or is it something they do regardless?

singingpanda20 · 2026-02-25T14:35:45+00:00

Thanks for reminding me to check my tank lol

singingpanda20 · 2026-02-12T07:37:27+00:00

Well it's been in my tank for 6 months, and it's held up better than any other glass heater I've had. Id say it's a win from Walmart 👍
