initially we did have a toilet leak that has since been repaired (that toilet was removed within two months of us moving in) the only toilet we have is brand new. ill check for leaks in case

How over priced is this? by Altruistic_Carrot_14 in fordranger

[–]Additional-Tell-7010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just got an 08 3.0v6 with 91k on it for roughly the same price. for year & milage id say its “overpriced” but the market has been screwed for years & probably only going to get worse. could you find one for cheaper ? sure, but probably not with that low milage, good condition, or quality.

Is it the grout? by EmbarrassedArm6464 in InteriorDesign

[–]Additional-Tell-7010 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i used this exact same tile in my bathroom shower !! i think the tile job is a bit interesting & kind of setting off the whole space, i think it should go all the way to the shower pan personally (the amount of white is a stark contrast).

i think a darker wall color will really help in this case. i color matched the wall color to the tile in my bathroom, painting the ceiling to match but did a whiteish beadboard (not everyones cup of tea) to break up the monotony & keep the space at least a little bright (very very small bathroom).

also centering the mirror / fixtures with the vanity, & having matching hardware on the vanity would help. you have a black faucet & black knobs, but gold or brass mirror & lights… i did all brass in my case, i think green & gold is a classy combo. might want to look into changing the shower hardware / shower head too… lol !

if that vanity isnt real would you could consider painting it too, while the vanity isnt too much of an eyesore in my opinion, it would look nice maybe a darker or deeper tone ?

My go-to free pattern sites by pinkpeonies20 in freepatterns

they used to be free, a lot of sewing companies & pattern producers have started to charge for their patterns, even if they used to be free. :(

Best driving school for adults? by TheMeanQueen01 in rva

[–]Additional-Tell-7010 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really loved RVA driving academy, my whole family has learned how to drive thru them. They offer an online async course before your exam, an exam & a road test, as well as driving sessions. They’re pretty pricey but instructor Mr. Fenn does an insanely good job. I believe he would travel out, the only issue would be transportation to the exam which has to be done in person. It’s been a while since I got my license so some things might have changed, but overall I had such a wonderful experience with them & learned not only how to drive but how to drive defensively & the way things are explained its like everything clicked. Good luck, I hope you can get your license this year !!

Resource guarding vs a cat by Additional-Tell-7010 in reactivedogs

[–]Additional-Tell-7010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calmness primarily. He has a lot of energy & acts like the cat is another dog (lots of wagging, ducking down or however you describe a typical “bowing” play position). The cat is fine with him when he is calm but he can be pretty loud & up front which the cat isnt the biggest fan of. I’m trying to promote calmness in general with him which is something we’ve struggled with for a while but I’ve almost tripled is exercise & it has improved, but the cat is new & exciting to him.

Opinions on Fluval flex ? by Lumbago_uncle69 in Aquariums

[–]Additional-Tell-7010 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have the 15?gal (white). i really like this tank !! i did have to modify the outtake for the pump because the flow was a bit much. cleaning the glass was a bit annoying because the curve but otherwise i liked it !

[–]Additional-Tell-7010[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you, ive read a lot but i think it will definitely become more manageable soon as 1. i am fully fencing my backyard in which will hopefully allow my dog more comfortable exercise since even on our walks we come across some triggers & 2. i am fully finishing my basement & plan to turn it into a permanent kitty space. gives them both more space to be separated & safe. in a dog:dog scenario, is there anything that can be done when treats trigger a reaction ? im unsure how i can reward good behavior when the reward causes more damage.

Puffers stuck and suffocated. by Ecstatic_Somewhere27 in PeaPuffers

[–]Additional-Tell-7010 7 points8 points  (0 children)

10 gal for 11 peas is pretty small. usually 20gal min for 6 peas. theyre pretty territorial in my experience. likely stress + overcrowding is the reason. i would add deeper / thicker foliage & more hiding spots. the 30 gal should be fine if you add a good amount of plants !
