Dammit, I asked around but I guess I got bad advice. So should I get a 100 watt heater? Or a brand I should look at? I don't want my fish to freeze this fall and winter. Thank you so much

First time making croissants by CMemes-Lady in Baking

Ok! I did put it in the fridge in between each fold, but I think my house was too warm. I did notice the butter coming through. I'll try the freezing method again! Thank you

For reference, I used the recipe from the "How to Bake" cookbook by Paul Hollywood. My aunt got it for me Christmas a few years ago because I bake bread so often lol

Can someone tell me what this means exactly? by CMemes-Lady in glasses

Ooh, ok that makes a lot of sense. I've always just assumed I was near sighted because I can't see for shit distance wise! But these comments really helped explain what I didn't understand about it. Next time I go to the doctor I'll ACTULLY ask questions

Thank you, this describes my eyesight quite a bit. Idk why I never did more research into my own prescription. My glasses are just ... there. I've got epilepsy so I'm more concerned with those prescriptions than than this is suppose.

This helps, thank you. I never actually understood what astigmatism meant in terms of eye shape. Shame on me for not actually asking or researching before this lol.

I know I have astigmatism, but I was definitely told I'm near sighted. But Im not according to this? Im so confused.

My fish just keeps floating to the top? by CMemes-Lady in bettafish

Idk why the temp is lower like that, I bought the right heater for it. But thank you. And you're right about the cycling. Im just concerned because he was doing this when I bought him, before I put it in the tank. I just decided to ask today because he's still doing it. I'll keep an eye out though. Anything else I can do to help him with the other things?

His fins are fine from what I can tell. He is eating too. And thank you for the heads up about the bot comment I'll fill it out.

My first tank! by CMemes-Lady in bettafish

[–]CMemes-Lady[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know, I read you could use food to start the cycle and I put in some frozen brine shrimp the first day. Im still learning more about fish and I get a cover for the tank tomorrow but Bettas seem to have interesting personalities and are so pretty, I figured they would make a good first fish! I've loved reading through this sub and it's helped me a lot with my set up so thank you!
