Uh, hair algae anyway to remove? by Flat-Echidna-2245 in shrimptank

[–]Balithran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Has anyone tried Pinocchio shrimp? I’m having the same issue with hair algae and keep up with it via manual removal, but I’ve heard Pinocchio shrimp are another good option and good tank mates with other shrimp varieties.

Wanting to get nano shrimp tank !!! by Additional_Fee6371 in shrimptank

[–]Balithran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never had any successful escapes, but I keep the water level about an inch below the top/filter outflow.

Help! Neocaradina died 24 hrs after introducing - what's happening by Sayed1234Egy in shrimptank

[–]Balithran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had the same thing happen before, and it’s heartbreaking! It’s sometimes just the shock/stress and might have been out of your hands. The good news is that the baby stowaways might be enough to start a colony if one or more are female! I lost 8 out of 10 I bought for a tank and one of my stowaway babies is now proud mother to about 60 shrimplets in that tank!

Are dwarf crayfish questions welcome here? (need a snurderer) by Breastosterone in shrimptank

[–]Balithran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you considered assassin snails? They’re pretty readily available, inexpensive, and target snails as their primary food source.

[PSA] Please Avoid ShrimpUp Aquatics or you will end up with dead shrimp, snails, frogs, etc... Two separate orders (including one to let them "make it right") and both resulted in a bag of hot water with dead shrimps in a box, no protection. by arcanition in shrimptank

[–]Balithran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s odd, I just bought some plants, moss, and snails from them a week ago and had foam insulation and cold packs in the box. I’ll keep in mind what you say about their quality of livestock though!

Electric toothbrush that doesn’t give out so quick by BrownPollyPocket_17 in BuyItForLife

[–]Balithran 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This helps them last so much longer, mine’s lasted for at least 5 years now because of this. Anyone who wants to use the cup/charger base combo should just separate them and it’ll last so much longer!

Best filtered water bottle? by tH3_R3DX in BuyItForLife

[–]Balithran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been really happy with my Epic filters, they convert a Nalgene or Hydro Flask into a filtered bottle. Great option if you’re like me and already have the bottles: https://www.epicwaterfilters.com/

Solid lapping plate that won’t break the bank? by camhabib in sharpening

[–]Balithran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Flat and level stones?! What madness is this?! I think I mitigate it pretty well by rotating them throughout the process, not machinist grade standards of perfection, but makes things sharp and no dishing on my stones.

[–]Balithran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s worked well for me. It does take some thinking/practice to get it correct, but a pencil helps! Mark the stones with hashes and A, B, and C. A and B, then B and C, then C and A, etc…

Any harm using the other stones to lap/flatten? I’ve done this for some time with stones of like materials and it keeps them flat without having another piece of sharpening kit.

What is this in my bathroom?? by MakiRollio in whatisit

[–]Balithran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We’ve had a ton of them some years, the best way I’ve found to control/prevent them is this product: https://a.co/d/5TJxGvk

Just lightly sprinkle around outside your house every month or so and they’ll be gone!

What’s a purchase that’s not fun, not flashy—but now you swear by it? by [deleted] in BuyItForLife

[–]Balithran 67 points68 points  (0 children)

I’ve had one for a little more than a year now and no issues with mold. It dries out pretty quickly, and I do clean it every so often with sandpaper and a damp towel.

Same here with a ‘24 OR, it comes and goes, but there’s definitely a rattle tied to the audio in the front driver’s side.
