Beta Fish Emergency Situation?

By Aquaboy on Wednesday, June 15th, 2011 | 3 Comments

I feel guilty. It was never “properly” taken care of for five years. There are a lot of people in my house, it was under a lot of stress, the bowel was changed only like once a month or two, and now it’s sick. I gave it medicine. I heated the water, we always gave it the best food and spring water/conditioner, but we were too careless with it through the years. Now what are the survival rates after it is medicated?
It has a slight case of fin rot and a little bacterial infection.

Did I Handle This Nosy In-laws Situation Well?

By Aquaboy on Saturday, June 11th, 2011 | 3 Comments

I love my in laws and we get along very well. They are nosy people in general but not normally in my husband and I’s business. Well…I got impetigo this week which is very contagious and embarrassing and so I didn’t go to church last night with my husband (we always go to church on Wednesday because he preaches and I teach). My hubby normally talks to his parents several times a day and last night his dad asked him twice in the same conversation if I was okay and if I was real sick. He just said that I was a little sick and that I was fine. Then today, my mother in law called me and asked right away if I was feeling better. I told her I was feeling better politely and said thanks for calling but that is all I said on the matter. She then asked me one or two quick questions and said she would let me go before saying ” I just wanted to see if you were feeling better” ( I think she was once again looking for specifics.) I knew she was trying to fish out of me what was wrong but I wouldn’t tell her because it is embarrassing and I also don’t like it when people are nosy. I don’t owe anyone an explanation. I don’t have a problem with them being in my business normally so I am not sure what they are thinking. Maybe that my husband and I are fighting (which we never do publicly so I don’t know why they would think that) or maybe they think I am pregnant? Do you think I should have told her what was wrong or not? Am I over thinking this or what? What do you think they are thinking? They are nice people and I know if they thought I was sick they would care but I just sense this is more than just checking up on me.

Can Someone Give Me Input On This Bad Situation?

By Aquaboy on Friday, October 29th, 2010 | 3 Comments

ok first off im gonna say in this im gonna sound pretty shitty for one little deal, but im ready to take the critism. just be constructive. im 23 and this gal is 22
ok i met that gal online, we clicked right away, we stayed up all night for like 3 days talking to eachother, we went out a couple of times then one day when i went to pick her up and give her a lift home to be nice she started texting my ex girlfriend who im friends with now for some reason, no not feelings wise, there is a reason she is an ex. well this was my fault for not keeping m damn phone in my pocket instead of throwing in the seat. anyways my ex stupidly mention that i shouldnt be driving cus i dont have my license ( yes i dont have it yet because i got no one to help me, no parents either so dont bother suggesting. but i am a good driver none the less, my friends have said so. actually make fun of me for driving like a granny) but my car is in sured i want that on record. so once she asked about that i didnt lie, but i should have mentioned it i know. once we talked about it she said it was fine and not to worry about it so i still said im sorry and ok. now this night she said come over for dinner and i did we watched tv, and as i was about to leave she gave me a hug and a great kiss, then she told me can we just be friends for awhile, which i said sure cus even though we just met we were moving fast, but i belived she was serious. now i left for a trip to cali for a family reunion and we texted a bit and i told i missed her to show i was thinking about her and she said it back. so i get back go to work then i get sick for a week, so it was like 2 weeks since we seen eachother, then one weekend i asked if she was free to hang out, she said yes but then she started making excuses when i asked what she wanted to do, then up and told me she had plans with her sister, i told she should have told me in the first place and i brushed it off like it was nothing. so then one day im looking at her plenty of fish profile cus she has nice pictures of herself on there and i suddenly saw her profile said not single and found someone who likes cuddiling? i thought huh ok it wasnt like that the other day? so i go on face book ( ******* facebook ) and i see her relationship status was changed to in a relationship? i thought uh ok now im getting a hint, cus before i saw all this she wasnt really talking to me for a week then, which again i brushed off cus were both busy people. so i just asked her dose she even want to hang out and get to know eachother anymore……. i whis i handt asked that cus she said not at this time, then went on to say it was because i didnt have a license and that scared her? so yes i took that with out question, i asked would it help if i apologized, she said it would be a start with a smily face then the chat ended. havent heard from her since.
now i get my license is a big deal but im working hard to get it, but there is still the thing of why didnt she just tell me off as soon as she found out, why spend a nice evening with me after that info, and why the hell would she leave me hanging and not tell me she was upset. and im driving myself nuts about her profiles staus changes, why would that bother me?
im drving myself nuts with this so ladies please help me fill in the blanks a bit, is not having my licnese reallty that unforgivable when you have connected to someone so well? and why hide the other stuff, but worst yet why has she not deleted me as a friend on facebook? thats whats really bugging me.
this gal is someone i was looking for my whole life, we had so simalr backgrounds it was like a twilight zone epsiode, i thought i found the person that could understand me and for sure i could understand her, she has the same look in her eyes as i do, its something that is unmistakable. a friend said to me im driving myself nuts cus i may have fallen in love with her…… i know i really liked her and was starting to really care about her even in the short amount of time i knew her, but could i have really screwed up that bad. i was told try a romantic gesture but i dont think thats a good idea, cus im afraid i may get creepy stalker labeled on me. i dont know what to do should i ask her about everything, cus god know i cant seem to cut my losses. someplease help im going nuts!
i also forgot to mention her sister was in the car with us too i was giving them both a lift home to be nice, and apparently that really scared her sister too. so she is also being the big sister and trying to protect her, which i get also once again im not arguing the fact. if it helps i was never thinking put them in danger i was thinking busses really suck and i wanted to be nice. but it probaly dosent help dose it?

Ladies Can You Help Me With My Situation Please?

By Aquaboy on Wednesday, September 15th, 2010 | 3 Comments

I had this girl in my class and we became friends during the quarter. We talked all twice a week when class meets. I was going to get her number the last day of class but she was sick and did not come in. So I decided to get her number before the final so I can keep in contact with her and hang out. I know during the quarter she mentioned her boyfriend once and that was it. Today I asked her how her weekend was and she said that her and her boyfriend went fishing so I got uncomfortable about asking for her number and i think she can Sense it in my voice. So as the quarter went we became friends. And today I went to eat and a few minutes later she walked in and we both were very surprised to see each other. I stated to her that I got this other guys number in class and if she wants to hang out with us she can. She said no that is ok. She works at the mall by my house and she knows I go there a lot. She told me that she is off today and i said I might go to the mall today. She said you are going to the mall I said yeah maybe but she said it a few times. I remember at the beginning of the quarter i told her that i go to the mall a lot and she perked up and said you do and i said yeah. At the restaurant I bought her lunch which she said you don’t have to. I said that’s fine and bought it for her. I told her that I want to hand out with her and i mentioned it several times and I will visit her at work she didn’t say anything to that. She said will you have my email so send me an e-mail when you you want to hang out. So was she trying to be nice or does she really want to hang out with me only rather that me, her and another guy from class. Should I have aske for her number

How Could I Handle A Situation Like This In A Better Way?

By Aquaboy on Monday, August 23rd, 2010 | 5 Comments

A friend cooked us a tv dinner and it was horrible and tasted like paper I told him “this tastes like paper” and he said “Its a tv dinner what do you expect?” I replied “Liston mate I had tv dinners like this before and they don’t taste like this how did you cook it? And where the container” he said “In the garbage” I fished it out and read the instructions and told him “Did you leave the plastic film on?” and gotten a “No your supposed to take it off” and I handed it the box and said “read this” He stared at it for a min or so and then flung the box down and screamed”YOU KNOW I CANT READ” and I said “well mate I can read and it says leave the film on the plate” He told me it was bull**** so I cooked my next tv dinner properly and just before I was about to take a bite he said “Well I hope it poisons you” I finished my meal and said “Do I look sick to you?” and gotten “your just lucky” and I shot back “Well I must had been lucky the last 50 times I have eaten like this” and was accused of causing trouble when he clearly started it over nothing

How can I save my angels?? 2 tanks same situation?

By Aquaboy on Thursday, June 24th, 2010 | 7 Comments

I need help figuring out what is wrong with my angels. In a new 10 gallon tank that had 2 5” plecos a giant danio and tiger barb I returned all those fish and got 3 1/2 inch angels. Now one of them is swimming around erratically on its side, the other two appear fine. I checked the ammonia this morning and it was zero. After I saw he wasn’t doing well I checked again and it was at ~.15. Is that enough to kill him?

Now I have 2 angels same size in an established 120 gallon tank and one of those is now showing same simptoms. There are many fish in there all look healthy and all water perameters are good. These two tanks have not been in contact with each other in any way.

Please help me.
