This blog showcases all my aquarium pets and their curious antics. My favorite species are guppies and endlers, though all nanofish species are incredibly interesting to me. Currently, I'm attempting to cross tiger endlers with ginga rubra guppies. If I see progeny, I'll show the results here :) I also want to explore killifish breeding in the future.

Fauna: ginga rubra guppies, tiger endlers, santa maria endlers, neon tetras, red and orange neocaridina, MTS, bladder snails, ramshorns snails 

Flora: Elodia sp., dwarf tiger lotus, madagascar lace, bolbitis heudelotii, guppy grass, pearl weed, crypt wendtii, crypt parva, jungle val, multiple anubias species, dwarf sag, red root floater, duckweed, water lettuce, amazon frogbit, salvinia minima, java moss, subwassertang, probably more that I’ve forgotten.

My continuing Medicare saga...

I went to see my doctor today... I had to pay for the appointment out of pocket, which costs a lot, because the government still won't give me the Medicare I'm entitled to have. I have filled out and done everything needed to get this coverage and it's been over 2 months since I turned 65, but they still won't give me Medicare. I had everything done by August. When I ask them why I don't have it, they say that they're processing me. What does that even mean? I'm happy to say that I'm in great health, but my doctor wants to run a battery of tests to make sure I stay that way l, and I can't afford to pay for that without insurance. So now I'm going to find out if he can send the test request to the naval hospital on base and get the tests done there. I love the Navy for doing the right thing and having my back and for being willing to provide me any medical services I need, if I go to a base. It's nice that the military is still honorable and is caring for and protecting it's people. I had to see my doctor today so I could keep getting the meds he prescribes for me. I'm in good health, but what about the people who aren't. You can't just skip things like dialysis so what are they supposed to do? Lose everything so they can stay alive and live in a box? It's reprehensible... the Navy will provide me a way to get my meds from them, but what about those who weren't in the military? I have been using coupons to pay for meds because the base is far away, and I'm wasn't sure how my doctor would go about getting them to fill my prescriptions. Today, with the staff at my doctor's office, we found a way to get most of them delivered through a military program. I have been spending over a hundred dollars a month using coupons and I don't take a lot of meds. It used to cost me $25 a month and now it's over 5 times that much. Can you imagine what those who need a lot of meds to live well are paying when their government refuses to give them the medical coverage that they've worked for and earned all their life? This it tragic and disgraceful... how can a country allow a bunch of meglomaniacs to disrespect its citizens and not do anything to stop that? This regime will come for everyone in my country, eventually... it's just a matter of time so what are we waiting for? We need to take action, speak up, and speak LOUDLY and put a stop to this travesty of justice, NOW... it's only gonna get worse... and it's not just my country that's in trouble with these lunatics running things... the world is also going to feel the ramifications of letting this senile, inept, hateful meglomaniac stay in power... it's time to change things and make it right for everyone... let's start today, shall we... thank you.

Outrageous and disgraceful to keep people's physical health and financial state in limbo!!! The system will not work for us when we need it to

I swap out my endler/guppy mutt males fairly often (main female & juvenile group is in a 10 gal, the males get a separated into a different tank to prevent them from harassing the females too much) and this month's pick is already putting in work.

Drove 50 miles to pick up these light blue shrimp from a local breeder. I've been eyeing blue jelly neocaridina for a few years and they are even more stunning in person. They seem to be adapting well and have taken a liking to repashy community plus. Miku shrimp!
