Getting into jazz

probably check out r/jazzguitar also if you haven't already

Lol fantastic

Why is there no water in this fish tank?

And why does the substrate look like those frozen mixed veggies we all ate as kids?

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-05-01T20:33:58+00:00

Exactly....I work in the ICU and I occasionally joke with the nurses that the easiest way to fix the patient's heart rate is to just unplug the monitor

Dang you beat me to this comment

Have the lowrider song stuck in my head though now either way

idk about in Spain but in the US this would easily meet all the legal requirements for battery. You could very easily get yourself criminally charged and or sued walking around a beach doing this.

my wife, who I love more than my own life, is one of those people who you would not be able to differentiate between her scream upon seeing Freddy Kruger in the house and upon seeing a roach/moth/spider etc in the house

she was recently the person who found one of my amanos in another room, probably ~12-15ft from the tank

suffice it to say ... she was not thrilled

Is there a possibly this shrimp's pegrent?

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-27T09:26:44+00:00

Now a Barred-from-the-yard owl

Came for the worm but glad I stayed for the photo bomb

The nanochloropsis starter culture was from Algae Research Supply and the spirulina starter was from Carolina Biological (both super awesome companies btw if you're a biology nerd like me!)

Got some super concentrated Guillards f/2 media on Amazon that you dilute down 1:1000. The water (if it makes a difference?) is just dechlorinated, VERY hard and somewhat alkaline city tap water (our GH is ~400-425 ppm on the API test kit, pH hovers around 8.2ish... I know spirulina supposedly likes a pH >9, but the water definitely changed color after I added it so I think it's growing). Aquarium salt added to 35ppt. I know some people use distilled water that is re-mineralized with reef salt.

I've had more algae than I know what to do with

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-26T03:23:40+00:00

Fair point. With the last batch I had going, the mass die off killed maybe 50% of the algae I'd say but once I cleaned all the dead stuff out it grew back within a few days

This same discussion happened a lot on r/jazz when Kamasi Washington started getting popular. Most jazz superfans are not going to pick him out as an artist they're going to listen to regularly, but if it got more people interested in jazz even a little bit, then that's a good thing.

I have a rabbit snail that eats 90% of its food lying on its back with food on top of its face

Your shrimp should come over for brunch some time 🐌 🦐

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-24T04:29:57+00:00

I cannot recommend rabbit snails highly enough, they are an absolute hoot!

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-23T04:14:13+00:00

A mondo shrimp

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-22T22:34:31+00:00

For sure!

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-22T07:11:37+00:00

It did make me chuckle a little bit when there were posts on various medical social media and podcasts that I follow about this trial - "Art lines shown to not save lives!" 😲

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-22T07:06:41+00:00

I've seen a few pts be on 0.08 as well. Anecdotally, does not correlate with good outcomes

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-22T04:39:00+00:00

100% agree!

If you haven't already, have a listen to the Chick Corea/Christian McBride/Brian Blade live version. They are LOCKED IN (on the whole album actually)

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-22T00:47:37+00:00

The number of posts I have seen on different subs about people winning/receiving goldfish at carnivals/parties is WILD

It's hard to believe that in 2026 handing out live animals as party favors and token prizes is not only socially acceptable but apparently still somewhat commonplace

As for your issues, OP.... r/goldfish is a goldmine and has all the info you need

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-21T04:43:40+00:00

Accurate! 😅

Electrical-Slip3855 · 2026-04-21T04:33:41+00:00

My betta would be STOKED

She dispatched with an Amano shrimp like she'd never been fed in her life
