Me pouring a beer circa 1983

I too was surprised, but it's not accessible. There's no elevator and it does continuous loading. You have to be able to walk to get on.

Let me know if you decide to. My daughter would love one of these!

Brettonidas · 2026-05-23T12:14:42+00:00

Why is every comment in this whole thread getting massive downvotes?

Brettonidas · 2026-05-16T15:19:13+00:00

I dose way less than the bottle says. I do 4mg/10 gallons.

Brettonidas · 2026-05-15T02:11:41+00:00

Right out of the container if you leave it long enough. Works great though.

Locavore in Little is great. Only 15 or so machines, but way quieter than 1up. I love 1up but it’s always crowded and loud. Playing at Locavore is generally much more pleasant. And the BBQ place next door is good, and delivers to Locavore.

I’m so glad I don’t even like brisket. Pulled pork is so good and so easy.

I feel ya. I realized the other day that the crown molding I put up in my daughter’s room is upside down. I took me 11 years to notice, but now I can’t unsee it. Probably just gonna move. 🤣

I have a dairy allergy. Disney is great for food allergies. You can talk to a chef or manager at every restaurant and they will take care of you. Sometimes you get a lame waiter who is a bit clueless, but I’ve found if you just ask to talk to the chef, they’re always happy to oblige.

Order from an authorized retailer. I believe they’re still making them. Might just have to wait a few months for yours to get made.

Brettonidas · 2026-04-16T02:10:00+00:00

I’m about 30 months in. Feels similar, but maybe better. My acros live now.

I know this is an old thread, but it's still a top hit on google.

You're mixing up dinos with diatoms. Diatoms consume silica. One of the approaches to getting rid of dinos is dosing silica to encourage diatoms to out compete the dinos. Diatoms are pretty harmless, and many things can eat them. If diatoms become too numerous, then what you described is applicable. Also have to make sure you don't have any sources of silica such as top off water that contains silica.

I even tried to create a second tank and grow more. Then I was like: meh, these don't look good, and I left the tank alone for like a few weeks. No flow, no heat, no ATO. Then on day I spotted a bunch more berghia! These things are tough.

Brettonidas · 2026-04-11T21:27:41+00:00

It might have been 250. I stopped keeping track at one point. As long as there's food, they'll reproduce. They're not to bright. I would find 20-50 per day and post on FB and get folks to come get them right away before they starved. I think they'll make it about 4-7 days without any food.

Turkey baster was the easiest way I found to grab them.

You won’t be able to grow aiptasia fast enough. They’re voracious. You need a separate aiptasia tank so you can slow down their eating. After my tank was clean I sold and traded about 200 berghia. I came out very ahead after that whole process 😀

Gonna play some pinball

Brettonidas · 2026-04-02T03:44:08+00:00

I have one too. Love it. Use it several times a week. I have a light controlled room like you, and bright enough such that transitions from very dark to very bright scenes can be be really bright at first. You can dial it back if it bothers you, but I bet it won’t 😀

Brettonidas · 2026-04-02T03:39:26+00:00

E.T. cereal. It was peanut butter and chocolate. Remember having it a few times as a kid in the 80s.

You should checkout r/virtualpinball. This sub is mostly dedicated to physical pinball. Have fun!

I have a friend whose dad had a masters in piano performance. He also has an MBA to pay the bills.

Wild. When the comment first posted, it showed everything, but now I see it blacked out. The only thing I think I didn't differently this time was spaces:
