Yea my mom has fish and I decided to stand up and we’re going to rehome all the fish right now and hopefully I can stay in the hobby but I don’t know. My mom is getting stressed out of all the tanks even though I take care of mine and she says there’s no reason to be stressed over it but the reason is that’s she neglects the tank.

Good luck. But if your parents say no. U gotta just accept it. Respecting them is very important. Especially given that ur in their house.

Thanks. I got my mom on my side of things and gave her an idea that she really likes. For the 40g after I clean the diatoms and get it to cycle with new water then I’ll be helping her put together a sorority tank with female bettas

I’ve told you this a million times. This is your what, 60th fish you will get? You’ve killed almost every single one. You are going to fast. I stuck with one tank, and then in a few months, I got a low-maintenance patio pond. Then I got another and looked for stock for a while. I explained to my parents about using the empty tank I found for free. Then my sister wanted her tank so she got one for her birthday that I maintain. I’ve proven to my parents that I can maintain fish tanks. You haven’t…yet. You need to get rid of your tanks besides the one with Daisy, and be patient, because that’s the key to the hobby. Patients. Once Daisy outgrows her tank, then you get her a new one, and slowly work your parents into supporting you for a new stock BECAUSE you’ve been maintaining the tank. You need to prove to your parents that you’ve matured enough to get a job (congrats, btw), and have your own responsibilities, not that I’m saying your not mature. I think most people would agree with me on this.
