    I messed up today.

    Andy sager I was trying to get decent pics 😂 you know how that goes. But the “white spot” on the top of her by her head is where I must’ve knicked her. It was a pretty big decoration 🤦‍♀️ I’m hoping she’ll bounce right back

    Deer tick

    It’s not just this I’m overly cautious with this 😂 surprisingly I’m still enjoying the hobby. It’s a lot of work for sure. The biggest mistake I think I’ve made is going to doctor Google for advice. Like when I first got back in I had 2 betas with a divider in one tank. Decided to add 3 neon...

    What should I do with this platy?

    I always get a head count of my fish and this little girl or guy was deep in hiding, interested in food and would pop its head out but pop right back into hiding. No visible wounds or tears. The fish looks just fine. It drives me nuts not being able to get my counts in a timely manner plus it...

    Any idea what kind of snails hitchhiked into my tank?

    The ones in the bag are ones I just bought they’re supposed to be assasin snails 😂 sorry I should’ve specified there

    Any idea what kind of snails hitchhiked into my tank?

    Well they can’t stay here 😂 I’m on top of it. I don’t even care what happens at this point I’m really upset about contracting these snails. I feel so violated 🤣

    Thank you Aiken. I am keeping my eyes peeled for them at this point. I really want to get some good pictures for you guys.

    Any idea what kind of snails hitchhiked into my tank?

    So I’m trying something I found on Google. Please give me the feedback I need 😂 I went and bought a head of lettuce and put a couple pieces in my tank. From what I read the snails should attach themselves to it and I can remove them but I’m wondering why they’d favor lettuce over my live plants...

    Deer tick

    So when I was cleaning my tank today one of my nets had a live deer tick on it. Weird. I removed it and burned it but could a deer tick or any kind of ticks like that be able to feed on my fish? We have 3 dogs that are treated but they’ve still been bringing them in. In the last couple weeks...

    Any idea what kind of snails hitchhiked into my tank?

    The pics are kinda bad. Just noticed it today while changing my water. My daughter noticed she had some in her tank at her dad’s house this past weekend. I confirmed it last night and then found my own. I’ll be doing my best to remove all mine when we get into the moving process next month. She...

    Fin Biting or Fin Rot?

    Very interesting. I didn’t know this!

    Fin Biting or Fin Rot?

    I hate to put this name out there bc I avoid this place unless I absolutely have to go there but petsmart does sell the frozen ones. They’re pretty pricey too. The other thing I like more about the freeze dried is they float. The frozen ones sink pretty fast

    Fin Biting or Fin Rot?

    See if he likes bloodworms to switch up his diet and see if he likes it. It won’t help the fin issues. Just figured I’d throw that out since you said he seemed a little particular. Those bug bites seem addictive for them tho!

    Well water

    Ummm lol all I can tell you is there’s a thing that sticks out of the ground maybe 12-18” tall.

    Well water

    I’m gonna say it’s probably safe to assume it’s not 300 ft down 😂 My gut tells me it’s not a deep well. The builder only builds in summer he owns some company. These houses were like a side project for extra income for him. So he probably just did the minimum on that stuff. I mean I would if I...

    Well water

    Ok so there’s a mechanic shop on the outer edge of the culdedsac. I already plan to call the EPA when we close and actually start moving in bc it looks more like a junk yard than a mechanic shop and I know for fact epa here at least won’t tolerate that. We had a little scare from the epa when my...

    Well water

    So I have a half answer here that I have a question on. They did test the well obviously for some stuff no nitrite but nitrates are 3.42 mg per liter. Not sure if matters but the 3rd thing on this results thing says no bacteria. Is this a safe level for nitrates for my fish? Also they have the...

    What kind of fish are you?

    I’m gonna go with shark. I’m beautiful but I’ll rip your arm off.

    I’ve never seen a fish dislike anyone but now I really want to! This sounds hilarious.

    That sounds reasonable enough! Thank you Andy.

    Well water

    Is well water any safer for fish? What do I need to look out for or test it for specifically? It’s a new build house literally finished this year. On the market 9 days before we found it. Brand new well, brand new everything. He only built 5 new houses down this culdesac ours was the last one...
