We managed to get a free 17l tank with a cheap pump and heater
Dh was talking about putting goldfish in there when I reminded him he could get a betta which is his dream fish.
So I got a better pump and a thermometer to keep an eye on the temperature of the tank.
He’s pissed. The newer pump is a bit louder yes but it’s better. He can’t see what was wrong with the original (cheap) pump
He doesn’t see why the tank needs a thermometer
He’s pissed I told him the tank needs to cycle for 4-6 weeks. He doesn’t agree.
“When I was a kid you could stick goldfish in a bowl and there were fine” he sulks
I don’t want the fish to be fine. I want them to thrive.
No real point in the post. I’m just venting because I’m pissed off
