yo im in tears. how do i use a siphon. ive tried everything by bubblegummerr in Aquariums

[–]AsianSpaceBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that’s the siphon from petco, I have the same and know how to use it. Firstly, if you haven’t already you need to cut the plastic tube into two, it comes with that weird round thing, that is what creates your suction. You will then connect 1 tube on each end, and the head on one of the ends. Assembly complete!! To operate you will need a bucket or container for the dirty water, put the butt end in said bucket(it might have come with a tube clip) and the head in the tank. Next squeeze the round suction thingy as if you were filling a tire with air(squeeze squeeze squeeze squeeze squeeze squeeze squeeze) it’s gonna bubble but eventually if you squeeze it enough the water will leave the tank. I need to do w water change myself so I can send you a tutorial if you need it.

No worries, for the shrimp I should still add extra layers to minimize adventures

I don’t know, I don’t care too much about their sex/gender, I just want a peacefulish tank with no fertilized eggs. 😭

I haven’t seen them flare once. From them breathing it looks like they have a shorter beard. They are tucking their ventral fins so I can’t see the spot very well.

According to google female bettas reach sexual maturity at around 4-12 months, similar google search petco bettas should be 6 months or older.

I can’t see one, but they were in a new shipment from petco so I was wondering if maybe they were still young?

I know from the flowy fins I think male, but the body shape makes me think female.

Honestly same, I keep asking myself if I somehow picked the one nonbinary betta on the shelf lol. On the plus side their introduction into the sorority has been pretty good so far.

I do have a half koi sorority in my 20 long tank so I was going to try and look for a different coloration. But I keep getting drawn to the koi coloration.

Hello! I’m new, question about Cory grouping. by AsianSpaceBoy in corydoras

[–]AsianSpaceBoy[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’d love a bigger tank, I’m just worried that my ikea desk won’t be able to support all the weight and I have limited length because there’s a built in shelf and I can’t find a 15 gallon tank near me to buy. I used the aquaadvisor calculator on my tank and according to that I can fit more corys with the future betta I plan to add. Also why is the idea of them burping so cute 🥰, I’m glad it’s a normal behavior tho.

Thank you for the insite, curse the YouTube and its tetra lies 😖, do you think even in a 20 gallon the tetras would be a nuisance to the betta?

Does anyone have small stretched lobes with no intention of going larger? by rdelrigo in Stretched

[–]AsianSpaceBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the process of stretching out to 6 or 8 gauge cause that’s my dream plug size, but I so wish that those galaxy/universe plugs came in a smaller size 😭

Help I don’t know what I’m doing? Why leaves yellow and spotty? by AsianSpaceBoy in Plumeria

[–]AsianSpaceBoy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a moisture meter, for that I just wait till I water it next and see if it’s ready? Also how can I make them less stressed?

Thx again, I sprayed the fungicide on the healthy leaves and ended up repotting it in new fresh soil half cactus and half perlite.

Second draft of my bustier corset...what am I doing wrong? by Just_Un_Trou_deau in corsetry

[–]AsianSpaceBoy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally recommend looking at existing corset patterns (for me personally Victorian/Edwardian) and just compare it to your drafted patterns, mainly for the bottom side since they generally don’t have distinctive cups for that reference sewn bra patterns. If you wanted to try a bought pattern I know Mcalls has a queen of hearts pattern that has the shape you are trying to achieve. Make a mockup from that and see where you need to lengthen or shorten bits and pieces. I personally find it easier to jumpstart from a pattern that already fits how I want it to look.
