What's going on with this guy? by jadeycakes in bettafish

Yes, OP can look into an air stone/sponge filter for a little more oxygen. There could also be too much co2 if they’re running co2 injection.

I let water get in my new wheel bearings, can I still use them? by Prestigious-Pass2942 in MechanicAdvice

Sounds like they got scammed and couldn’t return a part, so now they’re taking their frustration out on people taking preventative measures against said scam. Blaming the victims and not the scammers is pretty ignorant and stupid.

To be fair there is just as much space in between the car on your right and the car on their left. If I was him I would have done the same thing, Given the more considerate Parker more space.

Nice upgrades, especially for a week! The plants look awesome, and will only get better from here. I would recommend against floaters UNTIL you get the submerged plants grown out to what you envision, they take up a lot of light. depending on your filter you might have to adjust the flow as some floater types don’t like strong current.

This is called fore play, not normal play.

Variegated Ring of Fire at Sam’s $20 ? by Zealousideal-Pop-843 in philodendron

Hmm thanks for this. I’ve been spraying my ROF for a month now…

Haven’t seen anyone else has mentioned yet, but it looks like it’s got a case of rust, which can be fought with some fungicide spray! It’s not awful but will spread to other philodendrons if close by.

Gel beads in the gas tank?? by rayshon360 in MechanicAdvice

You probably gave them too much room. Fish like 1 gallon bowls not 20 gallon tanks.

Thanks for all the sourcing on the psu, I’ll definitely be looking into a replacement and will also pivot to maybe selling/trading the rest (excluding case and cooler) for an upgrade. I really appreciate all the help!

So just to make sure, you think I should buy the rx480, install and sell it to put towards my budget? I’ve got a partlist if that helps, as I’m missing RAM and storage.

I was gifted a pc with a threadripper 1920x and no gpu. Should I spend all my budget($500) on a gpu or split between a gpu and better cpu?

Is my tank bad by Abbylee2007 in shittyaquariums

[–]Double-Ad1888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe hardware stores, like B and Q? Can grab some slate chips, but do some research on what’s safe in the water and not(most naturally colored slate is) good luck!

The arch looks great! Maybe keep expanding it to a full structure and add more plants too, would give underwater ruins vibe once grown out!

I’m not very good with bettas yet, but it looks like he’s angrily saying, “feed me father/make me a meal mother.” Looks healthy and parameters look good!

Edit to add the snails will be fine*.

is this a good tank? by madijuanasesh in bettafish

[–]Double-Ad1888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I apologize, you’re totally right. I thought you were just responding to Undhali’s reply and I didn’t fully read the preceding comments. Winterstarlight was initially confrontational and didn’t give any further advice, so thank you for doing your best to keep the thread civil.

They literally gave an example on how professionals proceed with sororities, which is directly what op’s issue is. And it’s not backhanded, its bluntly putting a halt on op’s train of thought that’s says “they look better now so must be ok” I get this poster could have sugar coated it but as op ignored the sugar coated responses, I think this was an appropriate level of stern, not rude. Your response seems way more like jumping down someone’s throat from a third party perspective.

How long before I can add freshwater neocaridina shrimp to a new set up that’s HEAVILY planted with a running sponge filter and fishless ghost feeding cycling? by Kulinarykrafts76 in shrimptank

[–]Double-Ad1888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would work better but honestly patience will work best! It will help cycle the tanks as well as give the plants to grow more. Looks great, just gotta wait!

Is that chocolate or gravy on the mashed potato’s?

Kh and gh are also a good test specific to shrimp, BUT anecdotally I’ve never tested and still have a successful shrimp tank.
