My fish have torn fins.

I also don't think anyone wasn't calm. The OP asked for help, we were giving our honest opinions.

Good luck on your job interview. There is nothing wrong with painting yourself in a positive light. An embellishment here and there only adds to the whole package!
 
Good luck with the interview!

and remember that, even if you don't want to embellish the truth, Modesty will not be in your best interests.
 
I just have one question. If you have enough funds to buy fish, why not buy fish supplies? My daughter was jobless for a couple of yrs, but she had a friend with a pick up, and a trailer. They would gather scrap metal, and sell it. They also picked up cans along the road. If I could not afford to buy what a pet needs to keep it healthy, then I would not get the pet. I surely wouldn't buy more pets I couldn't take care of. Recently my 75 gal. tank broke, and instead of keeping my fish in buckets, I rehomed them to friends who could care for them. I now have another tank, and am in the process of restocking, but just saying, It would have been cruel to keep those fish for weeks in a bucket.
