UNDERRATED PET?šŸ§šŸ¤”

I’ve been into shrimp-keeping for a while now and omg they are just so underrated.

They are so cute and have such big personalities despite being so small in size 😮 Just watching them eat, argue or just swim around is so fun and therapeutic in a way.

The shrimps don’t even need a huge tank, just a small one will do. They’re also easily satisfied, just some rocks, plants, food and clean water and they’re happy.

Not only the shrimp, but the process of aquascaping is another aspect of shrimp-keeping I enjoy but that’s another topic for another dayšŸ˜

... Read moreHaving kept shrimp for some time now, I can truly say they bring a unique charm that many pet owners overlook. Their small size means you don’t need a large tank; a desk-sized aquarium is enough to keep them happy and healthy. I love how each shrimp has its own personality—some are shy, others bold, and they often interact in amusing ways, like playfully competing for food or exploring their environment. One of my favorite parts about shrimp-keeping is watching their vibrant colors and patterns, such as stripes reminiscent of a tiger, which add visual interest to any room. Despite their simplicity, shrimp require clean water, some aquatic plants, rocks, and specialized food to thrive, making maintenance straightforward and manageable even for beginners. Moreover, the hobby of shrimp-keeping naturally leads to aquascaping—a creative process of designing and arranging aquatic plants and decorations within the tank. This aspect adds an artistic layer to the hobby and turns your tank into a miniature underwater landscape, providing extra enjoyment and relaxation. For anyone considering a pet that is low-maintenance yet full of life and personality, shrimp are an excellent choice. They take up very little space, are easy to care for, and their playful behavior can be surprisingly therapeutic. Plus, their peaceful nature makes them compatible companions for other small aquatic species. Overall, shrimp are not only underrated but also an enriching and delightful pet experience.

He likes being told he's cool
When Guinness went blind, he was somehow gifted the curse of hunger. I say curse because he now needs to lose 8kg, but also gift, because he finally eats things he never would before. Fruits, vegetables, kibble, even treats outdoors (he used to flat-out reject them). And those same treats now help
