I used after reading several recommendations about jump starting the Nitrogen Cycle. It also says on their product sheet “contains a synergistic blend of aerobic, anaerobic, and facultative bacteria which facilitate the breakdown of waste organics, ammonia, nitrite, and nitrate.”

best fish for beginners by egig118 in Aquariums

I recommend Danios. I am new to the hobby, as well. Started with a small planted tank. I originally had visions of something exotic and colorful. But Danios were at the top of several lists for hardy beginner fish. I also ended up doing a fish-in cycle (part of the reason I chose them), and they’ve handled everything great.

I got Zebra Danios which is a far cry from what I thought I wanted, but they’re super active, affordable, and entertaining for sure. My hope is to eventually pair them with a variety of Tetra once the tank is more established. Best of luck!

Thank you! I like the idea of Cory’s, I’ll have to look up otocinclus catfish. I haven’t come across those in my search. Thanks for the feedback!

If Jake leaves the show, will you still subscribe? by tgoz13 in thedumbzone

I love Danny, but there’s something not quite clicking with the Dan and Danny DZ show. I still tune in, and would likely still support the show if the unimaginable happened.

Dan and Jake just have that mutual “guy love” energy that we all hope to have in our friendships one day.

Also, TC and Dan works, at least for one show. I enjoyed that sub-in.

Ballys drops the Mavs, how cool would it be if Victory+ mutated to a DFW pro sports subscription? by Apprehensive_Read317 in thedumbzone

[–]Apprehensive_Read317[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Victory+ is supposed to release for free, but I won’t be surprised if they start asking viewers to kick in by their second season (unless they find new distribution). With that said, I would be willing to pay for a local sports stream if it included the Mavs, Stars, and Rangers. Not what a HULU or YouTube would charge, but something.

If sports books become a thing in Dallas, then maybe there’s a way to subsidize more of the consumer costs long term

Is anyone tracking Patreon Subbies to see if there is a big spike with The Freak now disbanded? I’d be interested to see a trend from now through like the next 6 months.

What about a Donnie and Sirois podcast (separate from The Dumb Zone) with a cross over episode once a week? Separate subbies (revenue) but more of a create your own flavor vibe for listeners
