I didn't buy a fish today.

I was going to buy a clown loach but the local store's delivery was delayed.

Edit to add: I forgot that I bought some bib coveralls on my way home.

I'm not a big believer in the supernatural, but I didn't buy a clown loach neither.

Coincidence? I think not, bibby.

Well, there really isn't much to eat on one of those. I hope you settled on something more substantial.

Packed with fiber, though!

This is also a day that I did not buy a fish. Happens to me a lot tbh.

I would love to see the tank you have set up.

This os the 20 gallon the clown loach was going to clean snails in. We have t assassin snails but the pond snails are proliffic.

Just added charcoal back to the 75 gallon tank after an ich breakout and treatment. Lost a pictus catfish and our bala sharks but everyone else seems to be ok now.

Terrific scape work!

Thanks! My wife built all the rock and driftwood, I did the planting, and all four in the family got to pick fish.

Followup: they're not very active but there are a few aquarium and aquarist communities on lemmy. When I am on desktop and can format better I will link them but if you search communities for "aqua" you should find most.

I too did not buy a fish. None of them was willing to come to the house.
