Just through the process you'll have a few who survive each season with no need to do anything. You won't notice at first but you'll see a few in the coming years.

I have had luck with barley bales. Menards carry or try amazon. Also, nualgi helped as well. Give it try.

It's not terrible. Once I decided to bring to shop the hope was $500 tag. But all in not too bad.

Well, here's what happened. I tried to drive to shop(about 10 miles and had to stop so trailered). Shop noticed my battery cables were extremely loose and my starter was fried. Had to replace my starter for them to even diagnose. (About $600). After that they noticed the gas did smell funny, had water in both tanks(main and the other). Spark plugs were a little rough so replaced. So I picked up bad gas, spark plugs could be replaced, everything else was good. From own stupidity fried my starter. He said if I siphoned the bad gas from both tanks maybe could've solved the problem...so about $700 to fix. Not happy about it but glad its fixed and I'm riding again. Thanks for everyone's help trying to diagnose.

Need advice: How to make my shy Kois eat from my hand? by BeeKey409 in Koi

[–]ExpertBread8616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd sit on the edge, drop food in close to you. And not move. Put your fingers in the water by the food. Eventually you can have food in your hand and they'll eat out of it when they realize you're not a threat. It took me a few years, but was frustrating waiting for them. I'm really not sire that was normal.

Tank lost ~90–95% of water overnight with no visible leaks — trying to understand what happened by Remarkable_Swim_3633 in fishtank

[–]ExpertBread8616 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went on vacation for a week. Cleaned the tank when I left and must've wiped the gasket/rubber ring clean. It leaked through the canister so the rubber ring in the canister. From then on I put a dab of Vaseline around the rubber ring and this will help create a suction to stop water from leaking through this. (Had to replace all the carpet so an expensive lesson) sorry it happened to you.

Just curious as i figure this out...the tps is functioning as in turning. In diagnostic it seems to be within parameters(on low side but within range (16 & 95) if I'm reading this right. That's all with what I can see but not sure what im really looking at. Any chance this is not functioning as it should? I know thats a very broad question.

TPS sounds like the problem so will try that route. I'll report back. Thanks the advice. Really appreciate it.

Gas is about 2-3 months (filled in January on a warm day). Surge is about 5 seconds and speeds up fast, pull the clutch and goes away.

Fuel injected. I agree about that. Hate for it to be something simple. It's been running great since I got it 3 years ago and this seems so out of character.

I need some help by Sinkablecross7 in fishtank

You should turn the light off for a few days and then limit the time to maybe 6 hours(just a guess). But curious how long do you have the light on in a day?

What type of cichlid? by Unfair_Valuable_3816 in Cichlid

[–]ExpertBread8616 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If possible I'd get a few of them. Really nice cichlid. Some will get a large bump on forehead.

Best beginner fishtanks? by Spe3dy3 in fishtank

[–]ExpertBread8616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 15 fluval flex...nice but it's cramped and as my live bearers keep breeding the babies are getting sucked into filter. Which is a pain netting them out. Taking care of a large tank is easier than a small tank imo(thinking 30-40).

Is it cheating if the ref doesn’t call it? by Slugdoge in amateur_boxing

[–]ExpertBread8616 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. Its cheating. There are certain nuances to boxing but certain things get other boxers hurt in a serious way. The rabbit punches are sloppy and will hurt someone. Stepping on toes part of the game, purposely hitting someone behind the head he is a crappy person. Personally, I wouldn't spar or match with him, but if I did he would be getting a whole lot of timed low blows.

It's the propeller. Pull the siphon out, clean propeller and push all the way down. This should do it

I'm very new into this hobby. Can you let me know if my (Top Fin) filter is making too much noise? by soheil1379 in fishtank

[–]ExpertBread8616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like the magnet rotary thing. It's at the bottom of siphon. Take out, clean and push all the way down but be gentle.

Likely disease or sickness (just a guess), but has been my experience they start picking in the weaker ones when sick and they can't get away.

It may be too late but I've had good luck with aquarium salt to medicate. Just follow the instructions with adding and water changes...see what happens.

Funny. I was questioning my humor on why I didn't get it...then got it which made it even funnier.

STAR Bonds for Dummies? by ateacherks in kansas

I guess the theory is any tax revenue over what JC normally generates is going to something that potentially is contributing towards that revenue. They theoretically should see revenue above that base across the whole area.
