The story of the live fish was me! I swear I wasn’t stealing lol. I thought it was food when I just glanced at it in passing, not really processing the situation? (Are YOUR thoughts always fully formed?) Like how sometimes I think it’s Wednesday when it’s actually Thursday 🤷🏻‍♀️ then when it was still there after two days I was like wait…. it says LIVE not “perishable”, lol. And the fish was still double-bagged and unopened when I floated it in my tank, just figured I’d start temperature acclimating it while I got the tank set up. (My fish seemed to have fun checking out the new whale in their tank too). Some people in the comments thought I had put the koi IN my main tank with all my much smaller fish lol. As if I’d do that with an unquarantined fish 🙄 I was scared to open the box at first because I didn’t want to be sad if the fish was dead so it was kinda nice having people cheer me on… Also, the fish did come packaged with instructions that said not to open the bag until right before adding the fish, but the all-caps comment was still really helpful! Definitely got the point across.

That rescued koi is of the Chagoi breed, very sought after. Not the prettiest koi, sure, but it's one of the most friendly breeds. People use it to teach the other koi to be tame because their outgoing nature and friendliness to humans inspires confidence in other fish! I want one, but I have no pond. I cry.

Relating a little to the live fish box, at my work we sometimes have personal packages sent there to prevent theft. One person had a package that was delivered on a day they were absent and it said "Live fish." A member of staff opened it out of concern and it was just a fish tank. There was relief but also confusion as to why that box was used. My guess is that the box gets handled better than if is says "Fragile."

Leaving an animal somewhere random when you don't want it is so mean. I recently got a betta that was left in its tank in a parking lot with so little water. He's getting better now, slow but sure. (Kid named him toast since he was left out in the hot sun.)

That's how I got my Betta (Swim in Peace) last year. Someone bought them for their kid's 10 gallon and the kid refused bc he wasn't a GloBetta and didn't glow under the blue light. So they stuck him on the sharing shelf at church, that is not heated, but still indoors. Nights were getting in the 50s. He'd been there 3 days before I came in and noticed him. So I took him home. He passed 2 weeks ago after houdini-ing out of his tank and somehow ending up a good 6 feet away by my coffee station. 😰

I've since swapped out the kit's filter for a sponge filter and removed the lid/built in lights and added a nicrew light because the plants weren't getting enough rays.

The federal law about mail only refers to mail delivered by the USPS. These are parcels and mail containing text placed inside a mailbox. A great person getting the fish out. Cool to see someone who goes through so much work for a fish!

Talking about live shipping fails: I recently redid one of my tanks and I ordered a group of Celestial Pearl Danios, Scarlet Badis and even a Luk Maw Betta for a different tank. I paid extra for overnight shipping and UPS got all of my fish stuck over weekend in a facility in Kentucky during a snowstorm. My package wasn’t even supposed to go through Kentucky, they put it on the wrong plane and then spent the weekend lying to me and the store I bought it from as to why my fish weren’t here. Thankfully all my fish were alive; stressed buy alive. Now I’m supposed to be having a breeding pair of Guenther’s Killi and another breeding pair of Rachovii Killi who UPS again has delayed it by another day. So wish me luck that all of them come alive again.

I saw some short-finned bettas over the weekend. Was SO tempted to get one, but I resisted. I don't have a tank set up for one right now. Thinking about setting up my 11g long tank for one when I redo it (it's currently the paludarium I mentioned in my other comment). Hoping to redo that tank in the next few weeks, so... maybe a betta.

7:30 lol I forgot that people have to do this for tropical fish. I pretty much only keep cold water fish and they love the cold water changes. Like fresh runoff from a cool stream.

Been so long since I been here, feels real good to be back, love that nothing's changed

The last thing I ordered from Amazon was bunny ears for my dog to wear for Easter😂

We would hands down *open the live fish box* after the first twenty four hours to make sure the animal is alive and doing okay. *Thank you to everyone that values life over threat of punishment.*

I'm with you, Chris. I love the open-top paludarium look, but you're dead on. We have very dry air here (southern Arizona), and my paludarium loses water to evaporation at a ridiculous rate. I'm getting ready to break it down and set it up differently, so most of the tank is covered. Won't be doing any totally open-top anything again.

Had a crappy day so I watched past Fish Tank Review videos for 4 hours. Helped a lot. Thanks!

The last thing I ordered from Amazon... Was also the first thing and currently only thing I've ordered from Amazon ^^'. It was fish bags and plant weights, a 100 pack of regular fish bags, 15 breather bags and a 25 pack of plant weights ^^

The last thing I ordered from Amazon was a electric gravel cleaner 😅 and a new 20 gallon filter. My betta’s living the life

OMG- Stranger danger!! Killin me today 🤣🤣 Last thing purchased and received from Amazon was two four packs of Marimo moss balls! They are really nice too!

Last thing I got on Amazon was a replacement pump for my fluval spec 5 gallon. I only just set it up again and I'm trying to do a blackwater setup. It's been up and ready for two months now with nothing stocked lol

The last thing I got from amazon is actually a nicrew light lol. Final upgrade to the glofish tank my stepdad stopped taking care of (so I had to pick up the care for it). I'm mostly using it just to store extra plants and cycled hardscape, but the fish love the new scenery. I'm glad I'm finished upgrading it though because I can finally start working on more of my own tanks again. I've got two 10 gallons sitting with pea puffer and betta plans (seperately ofc) Looking over what equipment I have already my next purchase is probably going to be a light too xD

One of the last fish things I got from Amazon was more bug bites pleco food. Everything loves it. I've tried using up my old pleco wafers, I still have a partial bag, and the snails don't even want them now.

Last item ordered was a case for my medication. Last fish item ordered was Tetra 6-in-1 test strips.

Last thing I ordered on Amazon was a 12-18 inch hygger planted 24/7 light for my 5 gallon planted tank

I just got two air pumps today from Amazon because they were on sale for $3 and I couldn't not. And yesterday I ordered some substrate because I'm currently setting up a 29 gallon and didn't have enough substrate. I want it now!

I got two betta fish because a coworker found them in cups filled with food on a bench outside their apartment. They were abandoned with the hope that someone would take them. I ended up with them because I was the only person they knew that kept aquariums. They're now in two planted tanks, but I'm sad that it's apparently common to just leave your betta fish outside with the hope that someone else will take them.

The last thing I ordered on Amazon is my 18-24 in Nicrew Classic LED light that I bought for my 10 gallon rimless Aqueon aquarium with a Fluval 30 filter, and three white cloud minnows. I want to move my other 6 white clouds over from their 10 gallon and let the shrimp have it since I noticed the minnows have been eating all the babies.

QOTW: a mat for under my new (used) 45 gallon to detect leaks and satisfy my mom's demands for the fish tank. I'm happy to say that my 9 inch dojo loach will be moving into this tank from it's 10 gallon. (I know I'm such a bad fish owner)

Last thing from Amazon- Had to get a new PC as the 12 year old veteran I Was using died. Writing this on an ancient laptop while I wait for delivery x)

Corks for my old bottle collection and my newly acquired 1/2 gallon antique milk bottle that’s going to make the coolest terrarium!

What's really bad about that guy plopping his fish on the floor like that is, while you can expect that kind of behavior from people who don't know any better, this guy clearly has at least some level of knowledge about cichlids (to have a breeding pair of acara, a big enough that they haven't killed everything in it despite becoming territorial, and request a severum or geophagus for their tank) and yet still thinks putting his fish on the floor to take a picture of it is a good idea But I'm glad there are still decent people out there like the one who saved that koi, and felt so relieved to see they were able to recover from what happened

I think if the box says there is live fish in there and it's been delivered at the wrong address, if it's nearby I'd go there myself first and then send another bollocking mail to PostNL or another delivery service operating in The Netherlands responsible for this screw up. Sometimes I get letters misdelivered here and then I contact them to pick it up and correct their mistake. Because PostNL is causing data leaks every day by delivering letters from like medical services, state and financial services to the wrong addresses, it's quite sad. But if there are live animals inside, I'd try to find the proper recipient first and unleash hell at the postal company later. Because they're supposed to do an apparently easy job: delivering stuff at the matching address.

Ive had to replace one nicrew light. It lasted like 3 years but it was kinda my fault it broke-the power tripped and it just stopped working

They didn't open the box until 2 days passed ? My fish was sent to the wrong address and before I even called within the hour, the office opened it to check if the fish was still alive. I think something's life takes priority over the mail rule, I was glad they checked on mine.

a few year ago, someone once ordered a fancy betta, and was dropped off at my apartment. I didn't have a car, and it was too far for me to walk. The delivery company wasn't answering. so I opened it, put it in my tank and went ham on Facebook looking for the person, there were like 5 people in my town by that name. Could I have tired the yellow pages? Yes. But my stress levels were already high for many other reason and calling 5 random people was not on my to do list. Eventually found the person, they handed me $10, I was like no you bought your fish already, I was just holding it in my tank, its just marimo there are no fish, there is nothing for you to pay. And they were like ".........Do you sell marimo?" I was like...."kinda sorta?" They asked if they could buy one. So I went and grabbed one, and then they shoved the $10 at me and zoomed away in their car and I still think about it today the speed in which they handed off the cash for a marimo felt like an illegal exchange . I still laugh at that. It was a nice betta.

I think I wouldn't have opened the package but called the company first where it should go. In my country it's pretty normal to recycle packaging, so there may have been something else in the package. So I never would have opened it.

Man, the things on my amazon history are insane 'cause I order things for my parents sometimes. The last thing I ordered was a bench seat cover for my truck that didn't fit. :(
