Those fish ended up dying but they bought a much larger tank and did their research and cycled it properly. they then got a betta named tana mongeau who i believe is doing great from the last video i saw.

I think it was on here a while ago that I saw a dude post about how getting pet shrimp helped him turn his life around, taking care of another living thing has a way of making you realize things about taking care of yourself I guess

I'm autistic and I use aquarism as a way to regulate myself, and I know other autistic people who do the same

It’s really good you have an outlet for your struggles. Fish are super calming even for people without autism
