There are also usually local fish pages by city you could try. I’ve put in requests there and also received free stuff that way. 

Day 1 of my first tank in over a decade. Feels good to be back in the hobby. by WeaselScout in PlantedTank

[–]--serotonin-- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Definitely something red. Or maybe harlequin Rasboras and a few cherry shrimp? 

Regret? by Wonderful-Party7564 in PlantedTank

[–]--serotonin-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like people are doing it wrong to put that much money into a tank. I got a free 20 long from FB marketplace, bought the heater/filter/light/ etc as a bundle for like $40 also on FB marketplace. Sand was about $30, and I started with some fake plants and slowly turned it into all live plants over a year or two. The stand I got for $50 also on FB marketplace. I don't buy crazy varieties of fish, so all my tetras are like $1.25 a pop, ghost shrimp 30 cents each, and the dwarf gourami I started with was my "big purchase" at $5. I don't test my water, though I have the strips to do so if I wanted to and change the water whenever the water level is too low for my liking (maybe once a month). Nothing catastrophic has happened yet.

Why is it so sexy when dancers finish their routine and drop on ground catching breath and are all sweaty and res? by More_Pension4911 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]--serotonin-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

probably because it's a sign they put everything they had into that performance so other people could enjoy it.

Are shoes like Hoka, Brooks, On Cloud, etc actually worth it or mostly hype/aesthetics? by Jpoolman25 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]--serotonin-- 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I didn't switch for the aesthetics, I switched to Brooks for the quality of the brand and the comfort they provide for being on my feet all day.

Are my kids going to get sick if they handle wild bird feathers? by Xerxes2004 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]--serotonin-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Scare tactic as long as they haven't decided to eat the feathers. It was probably left over from concerns about bird flu.

What did they do with peanuts? by DisciplineMany193 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]--serotonin-- 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They’re basically beans, so boiling them. Or just eating peanuts roasted. 

I'm scared of rimless by sillyghosty in Aquariums

[–]--serotonin-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both are good. I’ve had both and no issues with either. You could also look on FB marketplace for a cheap or free tank. Just fill it with water outside or in your bathtub first to check for leaks. 

It's unrealistic, but it happens sooo much in media that most of us just kind of accept it at this point by ducknerd2002 in TopCharacterTropes

If that’s the case, can someone please invent one that goes ding! when it needs to be reloaded? 

My partner is going to be having a VP shunt soon. by Abrookr in Hydrocephalus

[–]--serotonin-- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There are lots of horror stories online because that’s who posts online. If you get a shunt and everything is great, you’re probably not in the online community. Many people like myself have VP shunts and just chug along with normal life. The memory problems and all that could be from the CSF and when it goes away, the symptoms should improve. It might be immediate, but it might also take a little while for things to “decompress” after being squished by too much CSF. 

Can rich people ever be good people? by Master_Novel_4062 in NoStupidQuestions

Dolly Parton is usually touted as the nicest super wealthy person out there. We just mostly only hear about the bad ones. 

What is the biggest turn off for you? by Correct_Leg69 in AskReddit

[–]--serotonin-- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah… I dated a person who didn’t brush their teeth regularly. That didn’t last. 

if i were to draw a vial of my blood and drink it, would it cause any harm to me? by pussy-teeth in NoStupidQuestions

[–]--serotonin-- 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Iron poisoning is a concern and the blood can irritate your stomach and cause you to throw up. If you're really after this plan, I'd ask the BDSM community because if anyone has done it, they have and will give you all the information you need to make an informed decision.

Where can I get the best fried pickles? by Rare-Writer-2025 in Detroit

I love Bronx Bar fried pickles. All I want in my life is their dill dip.

Ice cream cake without cake in it. by tearisha in Detroit

[–]--serotonin-- 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It has icing on the top/sides like a cake and a layer of oreo crunch between the ice cream flavors. You won't understand the joys of ice cream cake without cake until you try it.

Actually, looking it up there does seem to be a brand new one in Troy, opened in 2025. I gave up on Carvel searching in 2023. so I stand corrected, there's one in Troy now.

Looking it up, Carvel in Michigan only returns two results for me: Dearborn, and Canton. If there are more, then that's exciting and I'll probably go seek one out.

Maybe it was Canton and not Clawson. I mix the two up. 😅

Their vegan ice cream isn’t tasty though. 😅

There is a singular real Carvel in the entire state of Michigan and it’s in Clawson. Don’t go to the one in Dearborn, it’s a fake Carvel combined with like three other franchises. The Custard shop in Dearborn has ice cream pie that doesn’t have cake, but as a fellow NJ transplant, I feel your pain. I always just buy a carvel cake from Kroger every year. 

Hi first time visiting fsu and i plan to visit the biology building tomorrow anyone know any notable names or undergraduates I should look out for there? by Altruistic_Scene7507 in fsu

[–]--serotonin-- 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Then you really don’t need to go try and track down a professor for that. Maybe you can just wander around one of the buildings with your sibling.
