midnado you like frogs?
How many tanks do you have? What do you specialize in (on fishlore)?
general discussion then click on members interviews, you’ll seeWhat? why are you guys interviewing midna ???
What is your favorite frog midna
Do you plan on putting together a bigger tank in the future? If so, what are you going to put in it?
How has fish keeping changed your life?
Is midna your real name? What does it mean?
The only Zelda game I played was Ocarina of Time for the N64. Great game. Actually, I think my little brother was playing Twilight Princess when he came to visit. I just assumed Twilight Princess was Zelda, lol. It never occurred to me that it might be a different character. Then again, I haven’t played a game since the Playstation 2.i'd like to, but I have a lot of drawbacks, so it would probably be like... in the future-future lol. there's no room at my parent's house for another tank, especially a bigger tank. I have my 10 gallon in the "butler's pantry" next to the pantry (my family always leaves the pantry door open which blocks most of my tank, which annoys me because then my fish can't see anything lol) and I only have enough room to fit my 5.5g i'm setting up beside it. no idea where i'm gonna put all the crud next to the tank when that happens lol. i've had a tank in that spot since I graduated college back in 2013 and my mom's not thrilled about it lol. all the rest of my tank equipment is taking up room in the dining room and the cabinet under the tank.

if I were to get another tank i'd have to get a stand too, and then figure out where to put it. there's no room in my room. plus electricity costs... I really can't get anymore pets while i'm living with my parents. I already brought home my frog, old betta, hamsters, and cat from college, all which were bought without my parents' permission (u shoulda seen their face when I brought home my new screaming cat to visit over the weekend, hoooo boy), so going against their wishes while i'm living here would be bad of me.
then there's the whole "i've been unemployed for a year and have no income" thing, lol. i've already spent 400 bucks on this 10 gallon tank, idk what a bigger tank would cost!!! so maybe someday when I have a job and my own place. or if I marry someone rich. haha yeah riiiiight
that was such a long answer i'm sorry ajdjdjfk TO ACTUALLY ANSWER YOUR QUESTION THOUGH, the biggest tank that I really want is just a planted 20 gallon long. filled with african dwarf frogs. preferably with some blonde ones in there. that's what I was going to do until I decided to just get a betta. I can't wrap my head around getting any bigger tanks than like a 29 gallon or 40 breeder, all though when I look at bigger sizes, they don't look too big. but then money. lol. there's also not a whole lot of fish out there that I want. I think a couple double tail goldfish or pearl scales might be nice, but I can't really have any cold water fish because texas. room temp in my house right now is 78, water is 79, and in the winter the house is 68. if I have my own place I might keep it cooler unless i'm cheap. I like cories and small plecos, um... some other stuff... fancy guppies I guess.... i'm very boring ok. I like teeny tiny pretty fishies. loaches are cool.
fish keeping has changed my life by making me spend more MONEY!!!!!!! I also want to say that it's distracted me from getting a job but we all know that's not true lol. idk when i'd have the time to set up tanks and stuff if I did have a full time job though. working stinks. uh. it's made me more knowledgeable about fishkeeping in general? i've learned lots, but still not enough. it also opened my world up to aquatic plants and all the good stuff that comes with it. it's made me post about my fish a lot on instagram and probably annoys my followers lol. and it made me drop some of my hobbies before I really got into fishkeeping.
right before that, I was really into the dragon age games. I was modding all of the games, taking hd screenshots and editing them with programs like flycam, cinematic tools, and photoshop cc, played and finished da2, almost finished origins... I was posting my screenshots on tumblr and also doing a lot of reblogging on my main blog, so I was on tumblr A Lot. then my frogs fell ill and I came to fishlore for help. haven't played dragon age or really looked at tumblr since, lol. I cancelled my subscription for photoshop because I wasn't using it and it was costing me money every month. I feel kinda bad because I still have a ton of screenshots I gotta post/edit, and I have like 700 followers... oh well. now I check fishlore like a thousand times a day
nope! my real name is sheryl, but I recently went through a poop time and started going by ellie online. midna is in remembrance of that goofy-looking critter in my avatar, my old african dwarf frog. midna was named after a character from the video game the legend of zelda: twilight princess. I assume midna is short for midnight! zelda games like pulling clever stuff like that. get it. twilight princess. midna. she's a twili. she's actually THE twilight princess. yup. guess who just learned that because they're a #fakefan. me.
y'all can just call me midna though, I don't mind.
I played Twilight Princess on the Game Cube years ago. I have a PS2 that a friend gave me and am actually wanting to play some titles that I never had time for back in the day.The only Zelda game I played was Ocarina of Time for the N64. Great game. Actually, I think my little brother was playing Twilight Princess when he came to visit. I just assumed Twilight Princess was Zelda, lol. It never occurred to me that it might be a different character. Then again, I haven’t played a game since the Playstation 2.
I LOVE Midna!!! She is dark yet kind, ruthless yet gentle. Definitely, my kind of girl.
Ladies in Gaming: Twilight Princess's Midna
My question for our own midnawas... How many hours did it take you to complete LoZ Twilight Princess? Lol, but now I see the fakefan hashtag and wonder if you've played... So, that's my next question. Have you ever played LoZ TP?

Lol, finally. That’s so true. I was talking to my brother about Kingdom Hearts. Since he’s still a gamer, I asked him if they’re still making old school games like Laura Croft, Rachet and Clank, Turok, etc. He blurts out Kingdom Hearts 3 is coming out, and I’m thinking, “Really, that’s it? Only three?” I played Kingdom hearts 2 ages ago, and figured there were a lot more after that. Brings back good memories.I was actually just explaining to Gala over dm that i've never really played tp. Whoops.
"I did actually TRY to play tp after it came out. got it for my bday and everything. but it just didn't interest me?? I got stuck at the part where you gotta get the stupid cat over the bridge and I felt I couldn't move on in the game unless I completed it. my brother did it for me, but then I kept dying so I was like **** it lol. never picked it up again. my brother's played and completed oot, majora's mask (that game always creeped/stressed me out tbh), tp, and wind waker (I have 0 interest in that game). all of our game systems are too old to play any of the newer games, and we've never had any interest in the classics before oot. (actually nvm, we have a ds, a 2ds and a wii, so we could play more "newer" games if we wanted to lol.) he's talking about getting a switch and botw for his birthday/christmas though.
oot was one of my fave games as a kid and I played and beat it several times. I have the ds version too but I haven't finished it yet. i'm so lazy when it comes to games, it's ridiculous. "
so there's that lol. but grrr, y'all are making me want to drag the old gamecube out of the disgusting pile of old game systems in my brother's room and play it!! but after gala said she clocked 200 hours on a single playthrough.... lol. idk.
what did you end up naming your daughter?? I think midna is a very pretty name!
saaaame. midna does actually jokingly call zelda the twilight princess when she meets her, but in the end it's revealed that midna is the true twilight princess. the ps2 is the last gaming console I bought haha. unless handhelds count. but kingdom hearts 3 is FINALLY coming out next year which means I need a ps4 or i'm outta luck.
I never took you to be a game nerd. I think it’s time for your interviewThat stupid cat! That one threw me for a bit too, lol. I'm a little embarrassed to admit that TP was my first Zelda game since trying to play the original on NES when I was a tyke. Though afterward, I did play a little OoT, but by then there was a new baby at home and I never got back to it. I do understand though.. OoT is considered the best in the series by a long shot, and all this talk has me wanting to pick it up again.
So, you still have a Wii? All I'll say is... they're hackable. And yes, even so, this Nintendo nerd bought a WiiU and TP in HD to play on it.
Midna is indeed a lovely name, but I considered how often she may have to explain it, teasing and all that. Guess I'm a little old school. Plus, I wanted to give her the middle name that was my mother-in-law's first name. We lost her when my firstborn, (a boy and his Grandma's pride and joy), was only six months ol

We lost her when my firstborn, (a boy and his Grandma's pride and joy), was only six months old. 5 years later, a girl was on the way, and she is named Sophia Florence. I miss and love my mil, but didn't really love her name, and thought Sophia really rolled nicely with it. Found out later that it's been a number 1 name several years over, so yeah, not unique.

I never took you to be a game nerd. I think it’s time for your interview
Ocarina of Time blew my mind when I first played it. I was probably in 3rd grade then. It felt so real. But I’m surprised it’s still considered the best Zelda game. It hasn’t aged well at all. I definitely want to check out Twilight Princess, though, but we’ll see.
And I agree that Midna sounds like a nice name. Unusual names aren’t so bad. Look at Oprah.
I did forget one thing that played a roll in my girl's not-unique name. Hubs is Italian, so my last name is also. Sophia, though not unusual, is a very nice fit. Then I went and screwed up giving my youngest daughter LEG for initials. Oops! But wait, this is starting to sound like I'm the one being interviewed, so....
Midna, do you get along well with your brother? What's the age difference and who's older?
i'd like to, but I have a lot of drawbacks, so it would probably be like... in the future-future lol. there's no room at my parent's house for another tank, especially a bigger tank. I have my 10 gallon in the "butler's pantry" next to the pantry (my family always leaves the pantry door open which blocks most of my tank, which annoys me because then my fish can't see anything lol) and I only have enough room to fit my 5.5g i'm setting up beside it. no idea where i'm gonna put all the crud next to the tank when that happens lol. i've had a tank in that spot since I graduated college back in 2013 and my mom's not thrilled about it lol. all the rest of my tank equipment is taking up room in the dining room and the cabinet under the tank.

Have you ever been and them for the past two years or maybe a month ago but you can also?
I see, you got me there.You've got to be kidding me. I've been further and them for the past two years or maybe a month ago but I can also. Can you really be and them for the past half two years or maybe a month ago but you can also wish for that? My guess is that when one really been and them for the past two years or maybe a month ago, it is then that he has really ever been and them for the past two years or maybe a month ago but you can also. It's just common sense.
I remember playing Majora's Mask on my cousin's 2DS. It made me "Thank you Kanye! Very cool!"
He also go this thing called "nintendo freeshop" and it basically makes every game free.
Ok so for my questions; What is your favorite song of all time? and What is your favorite song currently?
In order to save the entire world from exploding into a zillion fiery pieces a hundreds years from now, long after you die, you have to sacrifice yourself to do it; and if you knew this, would you? I wouldn’t, but this isn’t about me.
Whats a good movie that you’ve seen recently?
What's your favorite dinosaur?
I almost feel like you're referencing to ARK Survival Evolved, LOL. Hawaii's only reptile are like small anoles, geckos, jackson chameleons specifically. So dinosaurs are super cool to me. I get jealous of people's pet bearded dragons, monitor lizards, snakes, and what-have-you. Can't get that legally here. I'd have to go to the Honolulu Zoo for a chance to see anything else lol.i'm basic. it's a velociraptor. but like, jurassic franchise velociraptors. not real velociraptors. because they were just sissy babies. I like the big, cool, scary monster movie ones. they are also the dinosaurs i'm the most afraid of -- that and the trex. luckily the jurassic world movies have made velociraptors less frightening to me (blue ♡♡♡) but I still have dreams about them trying to eat me. it usually happens whenever I think about velociraptors during the day, and i'm about to fall asleep, so it looks like I know what i'm dreaming about tonight
as for REAL dinosaurs... idk. i've always favoured carnivores. herbivores are boring. but when you add feathers, even the carnivores are kinda boring. trex is a classic. I also like giganotosaurus and compys.
