Confessions of a fish keeper

This is a thread for all of the weird/embarrassing things that have happened to you in the hobby! I’ll start.

I once had a bladder snail living in my toilet.

I once had a betta just straight up disappear without a trace. We never found a body in or near the tank. Still not sure if cats(possible) or aliens(probable).

In the tank or the bowl?

I once (ok,maybe more than once) have eaten a snack after having my arms in my shrimp/snail tank without washing my hands/arms first. Yep. That has happened.

I once prepared garlic flavored food for my fish and put in the garlic chunks with the food, tank smelled garlicy for a week. My dogs would sneer whenever they got close.

I once put together my wood hardscape for my 20 gallons long thinking they are going to sink. When I put my water in, all the wood floated. One month later, some of them are still floating

Maybe not weird here...
I’ve spent hours comparing fish food ingredients, and only after finding “the best” do I narrow down the choices further by comparing price per gram.
