OC Outfit design help/suggestions

Greetings humans!
This is a rather odd request I assume, but I've been thinking about making a BSD specific AU design for my beloved old man Asael (OC).

I've been writing an AU with him in it, and have been debating on giving him a more "concealed" appearance for the first good part of it, as I don't believe it would make a whole lot of sense for him to show up with his wings and halo on full display without getting questioned.
That and I just needed a reason to show him off and possibly work on more outfits for him in general, and therefore procrastinating literally every other art I'm working on.

What are some ideas you humans might have for an outfit that gives off similar vibes but is still simple enough for BSD?

The first art is his usual outfit, the one he wears most of the time, so that's the direction of vibes I'm kind of leaning into the second is just what he looks like closer to his true form.

I hope the second art is still fine without a spoiler, if not please tell me!

White spots on the fins.

Hello humans, we recently got fish and we have this white spotted molly. Just now while cleaning up after a water change, I noticed these white spots on its fins.

It's only on this one though, I looked at the rest of them and none have it.

The fish is active, it's eating, it's swimming around, it's nibbling at the algae on the plants/driftwood and gravel when I'm not feeding, but I'm really concerned for it. I don't know if it had these spots the entire time since I didn't pay a lot of attention to it until now or if this is a sudden sickness.

I'm trying my best to take care of the fish as the rest of my family can't be bothered to.

I have yet to figure out what my parameters are like, as the test strips that were handed to me at the store don't have a reference picture included.

If somebody could help me with this I'd be very glad. I'm mildly panicking right now.

Some of my Kunikida fanart but it's cropped from bigger pieces that have my OC in them because all the art I have of him is self induldgent AU shenaniganery.
To be cringe is to be free but not when an entire reddit community can see the cringe.

I love him so much he makes me ill. /pos

Hello humans of this reddit.
Before I start I apologize if I word things strangely, English is not my first language.

As the title reads, this morning my family and I found two goldfish in the garden that the cats were playing with. We don't know where they're from and why they were in our garden.
After finding out they were, in fact, not dead and very much alive, we panic bought them a tank and put them in there.

Now, I've never owned fish before, and I don't even know where to start researching.
They're both swimming around, reacting to stuff and eating, the one that was a bit more beat up than the other is a bit less active but is eating and swimming nontheless.
The yellow one is the most active one, it's swimming around quite fast, is sifting through the gravel and keeps swimming around the grey bowl before zooming around the entire tank.

The tank isn't the biggest since I didn't know where I'd even start and just trusted what the fish section guy at the store told me (60L tank).
The filter is running and the water is pretty clear, but not completely which I'm trying to figure out.
They have a few plants, but due to the pet/animal stores near me not having a lot of fish stuff I repurposed thoroughly rinsed ceramic rabbit food bowls for temporary hide outs.
We put them in the tank pretty quickly since we only really had this bowl of water for them at the time of finding them and we didn't want to make them more stressed out, although I realise that probably wasn't the most ideal scenario in hindsight.

What are plants that they like apart from duckweed, where do I even get duckweed? How do I know how they're doing? Do they need a lot of hide-out spots? Are there any articles or videos that I can use to help me with this?
Any help is appreciated!

Edit; I tried opening the wiki linked in this server however it keeps refreshing and not loading hence why I simply made a post.

Edit and Update two: after all of your helpful comments and more research I realised that I don't have the space, time or resources to take care of them in a way that would be fair to them.

This morning I visited a neighbour, and although he hasn't had fish in two years he's willing to take them if I can't find anyone else since he still has all of his fish stuff and his pond. I will make a final update once I've brought him the fish! We will be repurposing the tank for a few guppies in a few weeks once the tank has cycled the water a few times.

Edit, Last update: Thank you again for all your replies, it helped a lot with figuring out what to do. My neighbour took them both and put them in his pond where they immediately started zooming around. I'm certain this was the best decision I could have made for these fish.
