Accidentally became a goldfish mom to a %# ton of babies. Do I love the chaos? No. Did I expect this much work? Absolutely not. Do I now adore them all? Unfortunately, yes. 🥲😭

Welp, if the new administration’s efforts to chainsaw the federal workforce take me out, I guess I’ll pivot to goldfish breeding… assuming I survive this first batch with my sanity (and hair) intact.

In all seriousness, though—does anyone have advice on responsibly rehoming baby goldfish? They mean a lot to me now, and while I plan to keep 1-2, I can’t bring myself to cull them or hand them off to just anyone who isn’t fully invested in their long-term care.

If you have tips, resources, or personal experiences, I’d deeply appreciate them. Feeling like I bit off more than I can chew, and I have no idea what I’m going to do with all these little fish.
