My Sweet Shlurp

Every morning I wake up, I'm always about 2 feet away from my little Shlurp. He's there as soon as I'm up, always right by the glass watching. Today I woke up with an awful cold, but seeing him there and his little excited interaction through the glass when I say goodmorning makes it easier to rest through. 🥲 Good boy, Shlurp. He is the cutest little guy. ❤️

I made Choco Pasta Dish from Super Paper Mario

It was actually good. I would do 2 chocolate bars for extra flavor and sauce. It is actually good like a nutella treat.

HELP! Is my new pleco ok?

It has been a night now and I woke up thinking she died. She seems kind of lethargic OR sleeping VERY scarily. She's on a leaf and breathing slowly and her eye seems to have a very slight cloudiness? The water seems to have ready perfect besides completely safe levels of 1 above the minimum level, which is in my established tank too. I really panicked. Is she gonna be ok? Please, is this a emergancy to move her?

New Pleco

I got a new Pleco today, she was an abandoned 4 year old girl bristlenose. I bought her her own tank and have been cycling it for some time now and finally it has been enough time, and I brought her home. I've had my eye on her for about 6 months and just finally got her. I named her Mrs. Horp.

I find it very interesting that Mrs. Horp appears to have a butterfly shape pattern on her back, while my little Horp has a heart. ❤️🦋

I finally completed my set...

I went through so many of these cards in the last 4 years just to find Bedsmith alone on eBay and FINALLY got him for $10, this will be an heirloom I pass down for generations.

These cards NEVER show up. If they do, it's always Mario, Eldream, or a Mega Pi'illo.

Is this coloring a sign of growth?

So in the last few days I've seen this white speckled color appear on Shlurp's belly. He's just about a year old now. I have had one other bristlenose pleco (who I had to return) that had a belly fully grown with the spotty texture in. I was wondering if this is the early stage of the normal belly texture growth!! (last image shows fully grown in)

Plecos Are The Best Pets

Shlurp loves me more than a cat, mouse, dog, or bird ever could. I love him, he's so cute. No matter how big he gets, he always is my best friend.

My finished KAngel cosplay! (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶)

I use a cute tiktok filter for it since it makes me look a lot like KAngel! :D This was so fun, I spent all day as her.

Something is going on with my baby Shlurp :(

He has been acting completely normal, but I have noticed this bright red bloody looking patch on his fin for a few weeks. I don't look everyday, but I'm scared. I want him to be healed. What is going on? I'm so afraid of any treatment killing him too I don't want to have to do something. I am crying. How can I help my Shlurp? 😢
