a group of conservationists in Bintan released captive bred f1 Betta Miniopinna back into the wild, assisted by their impromptu Betta Pugnax supervisor. Needless to say the Pugnax was absolutely vital, and no one could have done it without his watchful eye, and him inspecting the transport container very closely afterwards. I don’t know what the conservationists would have done had he not been there to aid in the reintroduction efforts.

Betta Miniopinna are incredibly endangered betta in the coccina complex of bettas! They are a very delicate species very closely related to betta persephone. Betta Pugnax on the other hand are a least concern species, and get massive compared to Miniopinna.

These species live together peacefully, and don’t recognize one another as competition. No Miniopinna were at risk of being harmed during this.

Theres so many others that were told verbally instead of thru text too like every other day I’m pulled aside by my neighbor to complain about where I parked.

I live in a small row home complex, and my specific row doesn’t have enough parking spots for the amount of tenants. Since I’m nightshift, by the time I get home, all the spots by my apartment are taken, and literally every spot I’ve tried to park in has been a problem.

I asked my other neighbors, and was directed to a spot on the side of the building no one was using. By the end of the week she texts me to say I’m in the garbage truck’s way (I’m really not unless he’s taking turns that hug the building).

I ask my other neighbors if its ok if I park in front of someone else’s house (felt a bit weird about it initially) and a couple said it was fine, and pointed out spots I could use. Next day she comes outside while I’m going to my car and says I shouldn’t be parking in front of other people’s houses and waking them up by closing my car door and goes on a tirade about how loud closing a car door is at night???

I ask her where I should park and she says on the grass. I park on the grass. Today the groundskeeper said not to park on the grass. When I move my car to an empty spot, knowing I’ll be leaving in less than an hour, and that person is at work until well after I leave, I get another text.

I’m so tired. I hate the constant nagging. I know I should just listen to every other neighbor on the lot and park where they are saying is ok, and ignore her, but she’s one of those people that pins you down with 30 minutes of circular repetitive complaining and I don’t want to get on her shit list because she’s done me huge favors in the past

But oh my god.

Big dummy sat there with a worm on his head for a solid minute until one of his tank mates ate it off his head.

Is he stupid?

Up on offer, a bunch of used blanks and prerecorded tapes I’m not interested in holding onto.

Prerecorded tapes in the middle pic are $1/ea, last pic $0.25/ea. Must cover shipping. Anything leftover is going to the thrift

For the blanks I’m interested in swapping for stuff I don’t have (40, 50, 70 length) otherwise they’re just gonna go in storage.
