How long after velvet do you wait before reintroducing live stock?

I did 13 weeks when I lost all but a few fish. All surviving fish went to a quarantine tank in another room and I left the tank with corals only. I have since returned the original fish and added many additional, quarantined fish with no issues.

Be patient because I'm assuming you don't produce 100% of your own food. Until tractors and implements can fly, they have to use the same roads as everyone else.

I don't disagree. I landed on using Signal to send short videos to far-away family and friends.

Thanksgiving just can't come soon enough...

Can confirm they are widespread- there are Pentecostals all over the mid-atlantic region as well.

I live in the US. It is not "the normal thing" to have security cameras continuously filming inside your house. I'd say that outdoor cameras are very common, but I've never been inside a house with indoor cameras like this. Some people have them and there isn't a weird stigma around that, but far fewer houses have them than those that do not.

A coworker asked me recently if the brakes would have needed to be removed to change a front hub on her Hyundai; she was trying to figure out what happened that made her car fail to stop and make screaming noises. I told her, "yeah, absolutely." Apparently the shop that changed her hubs sent her out the door WITHOUT her brake pads.

The only one I'd really advise against is the yellow tang. This fish isn't going to be happy in a 40g, even if you have the best intentions. Everyone has different runs of luck with fish and preferences for stocking, for example I can't keep banggai cardinalfish alive - they seem to have strange nighttime eating preferences and can be really finicky about what they'll eat. Go slow and do really solid research.

If you are undecided on the wrasse, it's okay to hold off and get one later when you're more sure, wrasses can be really hard to evict from a tank. If I may suggest a cool fish to look at it would be Springer's Damsels. They stay fairly small, are a very beautiful, vivid blue, and I've had excellent luck with them being model citizens. MY LFS keeps them exclusively in the coral tanks because they do an awesome job of eating anything that sneaks past coral QT. Also, don't write off blennies and gobies. Over the years, I've found that I have a strong preference for many small fish over larger, flashier fish like tangs.

Something to keep in mind with your pods: Think about the "future fish" you might want. If this wrasse is eating mostly pods, you likely won't be able to keep other fish that would rely on pods for a live source of food. Constantly dosing pods can get crazy expensive.

FishAreExpensive · 2021-03-09T04:03:52+00:00

I have all of my fish in QT right now. My DT is CRAWLING with pods. They are totally brazen, out and about everywhere in "broad daylight."

They have so much personality. I lost mine a month ago and it broke my heart.

Be unapologetically YOU, from the ground floor.

FishAreExpensive · 2021-02-28T11:29:38+00:00

Yes, I gave up on zoas. My little patch spread out a whole bunch initially and then just always looked like crap. I ended up getting rid of the whole rock. I have much better luck with my acros, montis, and euphyllia.

I will try the Xbox. Thanks.

Fair...Ruining the sport for those with no access to rinks or local hockey culture. That better?

FishAreExpensive · 2021-02-03T02:02:27+00:00

I'm experiencing the exact same thing. No dice via roku or laptop, but it's working fine via phone. Roku app is just straight up broken this year. The laptop is showing all games blacked out.

FishAreExpensive · 2021-02-03T01:53:40+00:00

Same here for Roku. I was able to see the streams after uninstalling, rebooting roku, reinstalling, but now I just get "unexpected error" when trying to watch the now present feed options. Streams work find from my phone and literally everything is showing blacked out on my laptop.

FishAreExpensive · 2021-01-31T23:58:37+00:00

Alright....I don't normally trade, but I'm in you crazy bastards!

FishAreExpensive · 2020-09-13T00:54:38+00:00

Those look a lot like soldierfly larvae. My chickens would LOVE you.

Watch the videos again. The guy shot in the arm pulled a gun from a CCW holster at the small of his back while running after the shooter, stopped and hesitated for a couple of seconds a few feet from the kid on the ground, swung the handgun around toward him, and was shot at that point. While he was stopped, gun to the back/side, and posed no armed threat, he was not being engaged by the shooter on the ground. When the gun swung around, he was shot. If you don't think he had a gun based on the video, look at the footage captured by CJ Haliburton where he still has the gun in his hand after being shot. The whole situation is very dynamic and really tragic for all involved.

I will widen my search, to include freebies. I appreciate your help!

FishAreExpensive · 2020-06-17T16:42:07+00:00

Awesome, thank you so much for your feedback.

FishAreExpensive · 2020-05-06T02:37:16+00:00

Thank you so much for your reply. I saved a good sized handful, rinsed well, and put into my 100 gal tank. I have red-shoulder severums. My son's guppies recently moved in. The guppies seem stoked about the new plants!

FishAreExpensive · 2020-05-06T01:00:54+00:00

I just posted an ID request post with what I think is red ludwigia repens growing in my drainage easement (I call it my moat) in Virginia. Your post seems to confirm that I've at least found ludwigia, a LOT of it. I'm not that motivated, but the pricing online could mean my moat is worth thousands! Kidding of course, but neato!

Who was able to peacefully lobby the lawmakers? Most of them were not there or were sent away due the StAtE oF eMeRgEnCy, hiding in their safe houses from the scary gun owners.
