I recently got a betta fish, however he seems to be a very dull colour and the edges of his fins are completely clear, is this normal for a new betta fish or do I need to be worried.
He is in a 6-7 gallon tank well filtered and heated
A lot of decor (silk plants) and hiding spaces.
The parameters are fine 0ppm ammonia nitrite, and low enough nitrate etc
The tank is well cycled (2 month cycling) with high quality filter media and bio starter
He's eating fine so far and swims around a bit (albeit quite slow however it maybe because the lights have been off since I got him) And all round seems fine.
Please If you can help, I'm really worried that he is quite dull and his fins a clear. I have attached some pictures. Thank You for your time.
(ps I still haven't named him so if you have any ideas I would appreciate it)

I recently changed my strings and they sound a bit... dull or muted. This is the first time I've changed the strings myself, previously I've taken my violin to the Sam Ash shop where someone else did it. I got Dominants on Amazon; the same strings I had on before, but with a different E string. Here's a picture, in case that helps. Could it be the way they are wound? "bad strings"? or something else?

Is there any use for them I keep selling them because they’re actually worth a lot, but I’m scared I’m gonna realize I need them later.
So a few days ago this started happening, I thought it was just a normal sore throat, and it might still be, but it seems like it's a lot deeper in my throat than any sore throat I had ever had. It's maybe half an inch up from my collarbone in my throat, and the pain is dull but consistent whenever I swallow. It only hurts very mildly when speaking. I've tried taking ibuprofen, but it doesn't change the pain or the tightness.
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Do your worst!
They were cooked in Greece.
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂
It really does, I swear!
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
Heard they've been doing some shady business.
but then I remembered it was ground this morning.
Edit: Thank you guys for the awards, they're much nicer than the cardboard sleeve I've been using and reassures me that my jokes aren't stale
Edit 2: I have already been made aware that Men In Black 3 has told a version of this joke before. If the joke is not new to you, please enjoy any of the single origin puns in the comments
hi, I've been hesitating on posting this for a little bit but after mulling over it I finally decided to get this off my chest.
I'm 19, 6'0, and around 200lbs. since around early November I've been battling the most severe bout of anxiety in my entire life. It first started when I found a bit of blood in my stool after constipation and a lot of pain, which I now know it was most definitely a tear. Not knowing that at the time, I made the horrible horrible mistake of googling what it could mean. I got fixated on the possibility it could be CC, and I spoke to everyone in the family about it and got about the same answer; it's nothing, no family history, don't worry about it. So I didn't, for a time.
Nothing happened through mid December, but around December 15 or so, I started having some stomach pain right behind my belly button, a dullish pain and a feeling of being bloated when the pain stopped. Naturally, I connected the prior event and this one as symptoms of CC, and the wonderfully vague symptom of "abdominal discomfort" I had remembered from when I googled it. I got worried that I might have it, or have to get a colonoscopy to confirm if I don't.
This pain continued until right at Christmas, when I stopped taking my ADHD medication. During the week where I stopped taking it, I had nothing at all. No pain, everything normal. When vacation ends and I start taking my medicine again, the pain returns.
I finally gave in and had an appointment with my doctor about it, and he said it was just anxiety and nothing to worry about, as CC wouldn't just go away, it would be constant. The pain went away for a few days and then came back, and it's been back now since about January 10th, along with this slight feeling of bloat. I should probably note that all my bowel movements have been completely normal since, aside from me not knowing that tomato shows up in the stool as red and almost having a heart attack.
I'm sorry that this is a very long ramble, I've just honestly had not much of anyone to talk/vent to about this. I keep telling myself "it's nothing, stop being stupid" but I start thinking of the horror stories of 20 year olds getting CC and I get right back into the loop. If you took the time to read this, thank you.
They’re on standbi
A play on words.
Pilot on me!!
Nothing, he was gladiator.
Or would that be too forward thinking?
Dad jokes are supposed to be jokes you can tell a kid and they will understand it and find it funny.
This sub is mostly just NSFW puns now.
If it needs a NSFW tag it's not a dad joke. There should just be a NSFW puns subreddit for that.
Edit* I'm not replying any longer and turning off notifications but to all those that say "no one cares", there sure are a lot of you arguing about it. Maybe I'm wrong but you people don't need to be rude about it. If you really don't care, don't comment.
What did 0 say to 8 ?
" Nice Belt "
So What did 3 say to 8 ?
" Hey, you two stop making out "
When I got home, they were still there.
I won't be doing that today!
