back from my long break

Hey everyone, it's been ages since I last logged in, I'm a bit rusty on where everything is. Not sure if anyone recalls me, but I was pretty active here a few months back. I'd been dealing with some personal stuff - mental health issues, depression being one of them - and decided a break was needed. I'm not fully back on my feet yet, but I figured it's time to return. My betta fish and tetras have kept me company, and I'm actually planning to upgrade them to bigger tanks soon. I won't be as frequent with my posts, but I'll drop by every now and then. Thanks for taking the time to read this, appreciate it.

I'm glad to see you're doing better, FishQueen. This hobby can be really therapeutic for those of us dealing with mental health issues - I've found it to be a great help personally.

I've found that watching my fish swim really helps calm my mind, especially when everything is running smoothly in the tanks.
