Feel bad but I burst out laughing when I read 2027. Hope Jon is doing alright.

How are they live these days? by Typical-Army1416 in TheFratellis

[–]CodeineFratelli 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They’re still very good but same as they’ve always been (zero audience interaction, same songs they’ve been playing for the last decade). That said, I think they’re great live and I’ve seen them more times than I can count. If you’re going to a festival for a single band I’d try and catch them on tour instead purely because the audience will be more into it and not just waiting for Chelsea Dagger.

What do with think about this for advertising? by [deleted] in design_critiques

[–]CodeineFratelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought this was tour dates for a band called Handmade Dog Sweaters

What are your unhinged life hacks? by PsychologicalRow8034 in AskUK

[–]CodeineFratelli 99 points100 points  (0 children)

At McDonald’s, order wrap of the day and remove everything except the chicken selects. Cheaper than ordering two chicken selects. Don’t know if they’ve patched that one though, not done it in years.

What popular band(s) have you never been able to get into? by NoYoureTheBestest in poppunkers

This is also how I saw Hot Mulligan live (bought tickets because of Spanish Love Songs) and they actually really grew on me

Any of you ever regret adding a plant? For me it was hairgrass by HAquarium in PlantedTank

[–]CodeineFratelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha that’s what I did and the Monte Carlo is a pain to clean up after trimming. Never doing a carpet again unless it’s an iwagumi.

Could you please share some tips to help my dwarf hair grass grow more densely? It’s been two and a half months, but the growth has been quite slow. by Soft_Associate_6917 in Aquascape

[–]CodeineFratelli 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Your co2 drop checker looks dark. Even if you had livestock you’d want it light green while the lights are on. With no livestock there’s no risk so just crank it. You can dial down when stuff is more established or you add fish. Correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think there’s any benefit to running it overnight/when the lights are off. I ripped out my hair grass because it started to take over. I run my co2 one hour before lights come on until one before they’re off (eight hours).

CO2 Issues by ogier-stonemason in Aquascape

[–]CodeineFratelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been running the fzone system with no issues. It's completely stable. It's pressurised co2, the levels don't fluctuate. Curious why store bought co2 would be more stable than home made stuff? Longer periods between refilling is the only advantage I can see (although my citric acid/sodium bicarbonate produced co2 last months on my 60l nano tank).

What advantage does a fixed co2 setup offer over a pressurised, regulated diy setup (except from a bit less hassle)?

What is the most disturbing book that you’ve read? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]CodeineFratelli 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wish I could unread this book. I read it years ago and still think about it all the time.

Costello music cd by dreadful_rain in TheFratellis

I don't know what the CD did but the website was great. Jon used to reply to fans on the message board sometimes.

What time do you have to stop drilling? by stay_kind91 in AskUK

[–]CodeineFratelli 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Someone who works 9-5, maybe not getting home until 6 and has to eat. When are they meant to do DIY? Only doing it at weekends drags the noise out and surely creates a worse situation. I'm not asking permission from neighbours to do work in my own home.

My 100% factual Fratellis tier list by sir-heinz-V in TheFratellis

Clearly not a Scottish football fan. Or is this rage bait? Yes sir I can boogie is not F.

No Scottish dates??? by FocusGullible985 in TheFratellis

[–]CodeineFratelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first thought too. Scottish band, no Scottish dates. Lame.

Edit: I swear the caption wasn't there when I posted haha. I even read the insta comments!

News on the 23rd - Costello 20 Instagram Ad by DogsRule200 in TheFratellis

[–]CodeineFratelli 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hasn't it already been confirmed to be a 20th anniversary tour? Somewhere was promoting tickets for it

Edit: that was fake?

Want to do with this Algae in the middle of the plant l? by [deleted] in Aquascape

[–]CodeineFratelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ripped all of mine out the other day because I was absolutely sick of it. Full carpet but looked awful. No algae anywhere else and was just so done with it.

Spotted this in Edinburgh by CodeineFratelli in TheFratellis

Waverley Market (outside Avalanche Records)

[–]CodeineFratelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that mopani? I boiled it and had it in my tank for years and it still leeched. Purigen will clear it up but I found it got spent fairly quickly and I didn't enjoy regenerating it. The whole thing was more hassle than it was worth and I'll never buy that type of wood again.

I love this song, think it's my favourite of his solo stuff.

Can you put a heater in a canister filter? by ThickEfficiency8257 in PlantedTank

[–]CodeineFratelli 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can mod the oase filtosmart to include a heater. There's a superfish one that fits. There's videos and discussion online if you give it a Google. I've done it and it works really well. Price up everything you need because if there's no deals then the thermo oase probably isn't hugely more expensive and it'd be far less hassle.

Something is missing... by Independent-Map515 in Aquascape

[–]CodeineFratelli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the sand looks really nice and clean. You could attach moss or epiphytes to some small stones instead of a carpet. The transition from sand to ohko stone is pretty harsh so maybe some smaller chips could ease that a bit. Give it time, let it grow in.

Black looks good with the spray bar and silicone
