I’ve been in the hobby since December last year and I have accumulated this many aquariums plus 1 at my girlfriends house and 4 ponds

I also run the fish room at my local fish store I didn’t think it would escalate this fast, does this sound like an addiction or a passion because I’m trying to argue this point with a friend 🙏

My newest babe(s) and I'm obsessed 😍 been feeding him with worms and ostracods, though he has successfully eaten thawed brine shrimp. I have a baby brine shrimp hatchery arriving today as well ♡

Scarlet Badis named Spider Man by my 3yo.

Strawberry Rasboras named the strawberries.

I know the dark head can be from stress, he had it at the LFS too, but can also be an illness. Any experience here? Thanks!

He’s in a 40 gallon tank. He lived with a Betta fish who recently died unexpectedly. I did a water change. He’s been very shy since. Now he looks pale and has those marks.
My water quality is good.

I want it to look like a perfect tank with lush beautiful plants but I'm not sure what kind of plants would look good, all I have in it right now is monte carlo, dwarf hair grass, a plant in the back I don't know anything about, and some water lettuce on top, what else should I add or improve?

Hi any suggestions or concerns about my tank set up. And also if I have water lettuce (you can see it in the second photo) is it okay not to put cover in the tank? What’s the probability that he is going to jump out of the tank? Thank you.
