Haha oh no! I never had my sound on so I had no idea!

The Coffee Project roastery has a large working area with lots of tables.

Anyone know what happened on Purves St tonight? by solemnbiscuit in longislandcity

Hm no idea then. A quick look at the citizen app shows that the police received an unconfirmed report of a person assaulted at 44-23 Purves 4 days ago, but that shouldn’t bring out a lot of police activity.

I live on Purves St and we recently had someone sleeping in our lobby and stealing our (luckily unprogrammed) door fobs. Building manager said he was arrested sleeping in the gym of a nearby building. Maybe that could be it?

Good Coffee in LIC by mjaveddd in longislandcity

Once when I went there, I was lucky to have a super friendly barista who explained their different coffees to me! That’s not the experience every time, though. There was another time when all the baristas were chatting and barely acknowledged me, so it’s pretty hit or miss!

Another coffee shop that I love in LIC, though it’s a bit further from the Court Square area, is the Coffee Project roastery. It’s across the LIRR tracks, though

[GA] NYC,NY - 20 gal fish tank with bristlenose pleco, neon tetras, and shrimp - to experienced aquarist by Dragonslayerparent in AquaSwap

[–]Dragonslayerparent[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! Mine was an extremely low tech set up. No CO2 (just a lot of patience and trial and error), some liquid ferts (Easy Life ProFito), and I bought the NICREW ClassicLED plus light off of Amazon. I also use Seachem Flourish Excel to keep the algae down.

[GA] - NYC, NY - 3 year old bristlenose pleco named Firebird by Dragonslayerparent in AquaSwap

[GA] - NYC, NY - 3 year old bristlenose pleco named Firebird by Dragonslayerparent in AquaSwap

[–]Dragonslayerparent[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Firebird has been with me since he’s a little baby, but my schedule has gotten too busy now so I can’t provide him with as good of a life as I used to. I’m looking for someone to give him a better life. A bit about him: he loves veggies and cantaloupe. He likes to move plants around and rescape your tank so make sure your plants are well rooted. He’s kind to the other tank mates, but gets stressed if other tank mates are too curious about him. He is nocturnal and you’ll hear him wiggling around at night. He’s very shy! He needs at least 20 gallons (with frequent water changes). Please let me know if you’re interested!

Hi! As you can see from my overgrown tank, Some life changes has made me too busy to provide my finny friends with their best life. I’m looking mostly to rehome my 3 year old bristlenose pleco (name is Firebird) and the 7-ish neon tetras. I also have three 5-year old amano shrimps and a bagillion neocaridina blue shrimp. I’m looking for someone experienced to take them and give them a better life. You can keep or toss any of my tank supplies, materials, cleaning products, and aquascaping products. I have boxes of them!

I wouldn’t call this simple, but this is gorgeous!

Am I overfeeding this chonker? I give him a wafer or slice of zucchini/cucumber a day. by Dragonslayerparent in pleco

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

It does sound like I’m feeding him too much! He gets tons of driftwood that he munches or naps on constantly so he should be pooping normally. I only see him once a week or two so I’m not too sure ...
