Came home today to this. First pic is what they put the fish in for god knows how long, last pic is my tank before they cleaned it. They told me it was bc my room looked “messy”. They are old so I don’t blame them…. But damn…

….they didn’t use soap did they? 😳 I know people have the best intentions but like really no one touches the tank. Just look. It’s pretty. Leave it alone. Thanks.

Apparently some of the shrimp and snails didn’t survive as of last update. The parents are surprisingly still kicking. If they were mine, I’d have gone ballistic.
