A quicker, more gestural memorial portrait of my beloved betta Pearl. ❤️🐠 Miss seeing this wiggly, google eyed butt when I wake up

20L waiting for plants to hurry up and grow already. I gave you CO2, I gave you nutrients and light, what the hell is the holdup?

OP waiting for their plants to grow

Two Corys share the same worm (Aspidoras spilotus and C.Arcuatus)

idk how the hell i’ve run a blog called ‘botanyshitposts’ for almost four years now without ever thinking to talk about this but in high school my little brother wanted a pet that wouldnt die so we got him a moss ball for $8 at a pet store and he named it tiki and it lives in this dedicated plastic tank at our parents’ house even though we’re both at college now. usually it doesnt do anything but over the past two weeks of winter break our family has watched in horror as it has gone about the process of slowly and ominously rising from its usual position at the depths of its abode to the top, where it now floats with gravel bits stuck to it from literal years of not moving. my mom has moved it to behind the sink so now whenever i go to wash my hands in the kitchen i have to face it and im scared

how is she SO CUTE

on a more positive note, she is very active & exploratory & has a good appetite!! i have confidence in my abilities & i believe this girls strong enough to bare with me while im helping her. im ready  to bring a water test to the pet store & ask them why the fuck they think thats ok but ((((: she’s doing ok and seems to love love her new home.

several months later and we went from that, constant worry that she wouldn’t make it, to this! a big healthy beautiful thriving girl!!
