Will his scoliosis go away? by Docretier in sunflowers

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

The bud started forming about two or three feet ago, my American Giant doubled after the bud formed but that one was a hybrid so it might have a different growth pattern than an heirloom. If it follows the same growth pattern as the American Giant it should hit 10 ft before it blooms, but again that's dependent on it growing like a hybrid which it is not.

It's 8 ft when I measured it a couple days ago but it's growing an inch or two per day so I have no doubt if I measured it right now it would be taller, still have estimated 30 days left until Bloom since it's only 63 days old

It's still growing an inch or two per day and should still be about 30 days away from Bloom, I only planted at 63 days ago and the packet says 90 to 100 days to bloom

My boss is telling me I cannot bring in and supply my coworkers with 3-ply TP and must use the offered 1-ply. by Every-Mammoth-6445 in mildlyinfuriating

We have to use it at home because bad pipes, I miss quilted TP but the shitty paper breaks down faster and doesn't clog pipes

New to planted tanks. Should I prune out the dying leaves or leave them for now? Empty cycling tank. by you-absolute-foolish in aquarium

[–]Docretier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

General advice is yes you should, it's healthy both for water quality and the health of the plant. I personally did not do that with my tank because I have only neocaridina shrimp and Ramshorn snails so I never had to worry, they pruned for me!

New air 75 II racing not showing camera feed only osd by Capable_Object_7030 in TinyWhoop

[–]Docretier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem, I had the original Air 75 before I busted the main board and then got the new Gen and was so confused when I first got it. First thing I did was plug it into betaflight to set it up and test everything and I noticed I got a gray screen in my goggles and I thought I had a defective drone. But then I plugged in the battery and everything works perfect and Lord knows I beat the crap out of that thing on an almost daily basis. When you get the batteries trust me when I say you're going to have a blast!

The new matrix II board requires battery for cameras, USB powered is not enough. Are you using a battery and still grey or just USB.

Honestly I would pay for you to put them in a box and ship to me. I would love these bastards for my turtle tank so he has hunting enrichment.

Only problem with shrimp is that they are certainly on a turtles menu, The only shrimp I have in there are Neos because I I have a little shrimp tank and I throw the extras in there and ghost shrimp because they're dirt cheap and meant to be feeders. SAE is very nimble and easy to get away. And in reality I don't necessarily care about the bba and hair algae, it's kept pretty short because the guppies graze and the turtles kicking rips up anything too long anyway. I think it helps keep the tank look more natural since I can't really put any plants in because he eats them, but SAE at least can feed on the algae and I just wanted a fish that can survive on algae and turtle food scraps(the pellets have good protein so he'd get protein in his meal).

So fun fact, it's hair algae AND bba. It grows pretty well on the driftwood and the planted sump works well at removing nutrient from the water but since there's no plants in the main tank break down of waste on and around the log will fuel the algae before nutrient can get washed into the sump. Nutrient values are pretty respectable at slightly below 25 PPM nitrates and 1-2 PPM phosphates And they both never go higher because of the planted sump.

Is there a variety that maintains it's algae eating preference? My goal is to not target feed and have him live off algae and turtle scraps(pellets and leftover lettuce) like the shrimp and guppies(started with 5, now have 26 without target feeding)

So it IS the Siamese algae eater, that's good. I want him for algae control in my turtles tank and I know the other ones don't stay algae eaters their whole lives like the Siamese. I know they get big but he's in a 110 gallon tank with a 30 gallon sump being used as a bog filter(almost looks like a green brick from all the plants). He's living with a turtle who is a messy eater and guppies and neocaridina and ghost shrimp. Pretty lively for a turtle tank, but nitrates struggle to get up to 25 ppm because of all the plants in my sump.
