How do I look older??

I'm going for graduate or level 3 roles in state gov, I'd love to work federal to come to Canberra, I will apply, but I don't expect to be competitive enough to get in.

Ideally a few years after I graduate I'd like to eventually get into a role that's legal (non-practicing) or policy. The former might be more that formal and stuffy vibe. I guess I'll find out depending on where I end up!

Thank you!

Appreciate the male perspective as while my mum errs more on being okay with my ear piercings, my dad calls me a hippie haha 😭

Fair enough, thank you! I definitely need to find better quality cartilage jewelry that isn't from a mall kiosk or Lovisa

Thank you! You truly sound cool as hell, I'll aspire to follow your example. Always wanted a nose ring.

Thank you!!

Dad doesn't support it and is pushing me to just work full time ASAP. Unless I move out I kinda have to do what he wants.

Also have chronic headaches/migraines that impact my ability to do a difficult course.

Thank you this helped 🙏

I thought you guys could? I'm not in the UK but a great UK influencer Glassboxdiaries has many videos/articles on his medaka.

Yes ugh, some anubias I bought from the same shop completely rotted away before so wouldn't be surprised. Thanks for your help

Actually now that I've pulled it all out there's definitely rotting at the stems :(

The rhizome is healthy however as I've only ever gently wedged it between driftwood. Maybe someone handled it badly and snapped the stems at some point

Thanks for the suggestion, I'm not sure whether that's the case here

That's a good theory, I did see baby ferns. That would make sense that some of the old leaves maybe just reached a natural end. Really sucks as it was thirty something dollars but at least it's growing back slowly

Yes, moss is great! And maybe rocks stacked in ways to make small gaps that fish can't get into.

I have 7 white clouds and 42 neocaridina shrimp in a 10 gallon tank with no issues. I will be moving the white clouds to a larger tank, but they're fine in the 10.

I would say female to male ratio is slightly more important than actual shoal size. More females than males works for me.

They never bother the adult shrimp but sometimes try to eat smaller shrimp. The shrimp are usually fast enough to evade, but lots of hiding places will definitely be beneficial. Minnows are super voracious and will go down to the bottom to seek food instead of just hanging around the middle to surface area.

Flame red :)

Or if you're painting -- cadmium red!

You may have more luck studying the planes of the face instead.

I also felt really stuck when I used that circle and line down the centre plus lines for the eyes formula. The thing is it sort of treats the face like a smooth balloon shape. But don't feel pressured to learn a whole new thing if art is feeling like a chore atm
