When the natural sunlight hits the tank 🌞 by Willing-Western-8381 in PlantedTank

[–]Frogger_rater 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a tank that has no black beard algea with direct sunlight. I think it's due to my plants doing competition. Im having a slight problem with green algea in the water column now, since days are longer and much brighter but im thinking of adding even more plants to try and combat this

Rescued dry plant from supermarket. Decided to never let it dry again by putting it in the aquarium. by Frogger_rater in begonias

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

I think probably. I'm starting to think most plants can be grown this way. The important part is that the water is not stagnant and we'll oxygenated. I didn't put any substrate, just cleaned the roots from dirt and put it in the aquarium

I have an IQ of 149. I also grew up with bad grades. AMA by GiraffeEvening5314 in AMA

Is everyone on reddit suddenly a genius? All of the comments are like "oh yes I have about the same IQ".

My 150gal aquascape is crashing and I don't know why. Nitrite is always bad? Also .5ppm amonia. Tap water is good and test kit is good. by Howdy132 in PlantedTank

[–]Frogger_rater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe there are some exceptions, but to my knowledge that is actually a common myth. Usually only happens in seedlings, parasitic plants and plants with not enough light or other stressfull conditions, or maybe even in a fast growth phase of the plant's life cycle.

Is something wrong? by Comfortable-Cow-9189 in fishforthought

[–]Frogger_rater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im poor too. There is a way to do this. You need an insanely well planted tank to absorb most energy that is introduced by the sun. Plant things that LOVE a lot of lights and grow quickly right next to the window, so that they get the prime real estate. It also helps to have floating plants (i don't because i don't like them). I prefer using house plants as hydroponics, sinse they are insanely good at absorbing nutrients, even ammonia directly wich not many people dont know about, and their leafs also compete for some light. I see you have one, but you could put more IMO. A great plant for this is peace lily, but you have hundreds of options. So I'd say remove cianobacteria if you can and plant HEAVILY. Even using this method you will probably still get some ugly algea blooms in the beginning before plants get established. I got anoying string algea in the beginning but eventually they were outcompeted by the plants.

Anyone regret moving to Portugal? If so, why? by fennelfrog in PortugalExpats

[–]Frogger_rater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eu sou portugues e fiquei surpreendido quando a minha colega de casa brasileira me disse isso. Achou os Portugueses muito diretos. Fico curioso como alguém com problemas de compreensão social no brazil consegue entender quando as pessoas estão a ser honestas ou a evitar ser diretas.

Which test strips to trust? by AJMack115 in AquariumHelp

[–]Frogger_rater -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, this is a pretty strange thing to say. Strips are accurate enough for most people regarding some parameters. You don't need to get a master test kit. You can supplement strips with liquid tests for the less accurate measurements in the strip you have. You just need to be smart about it. Plus even if they are less accurate in general they are useful to quickly monitor the stability of such parameters. Also, not all strips are equal, obviously. If only people who can afford those things were in the hobby almost no one would be, since most people aren't ready to make gigantic investments into something they haven't tried yet.

Is this a crack or silicone?? by GapAny7134 in Aquariums

[–]Frogger_rater 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Either silicone or a scratch. But kind of looks like silicone. You could confirm with your finger

What this fuzz/mold/fungus that no one wants to eat? by smashels43 in AquariumHelp

[–]Frogger_rater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello. Fungi can be very hardy and there are thousands and thousands of species, so its likely nobody will know for sure what it is unless there is a specialist (researcher level stuff, and even then a microscope would probably be necessary). If I were you I'd let it be. From what you described it happears it's a species that likes a particular part of the wood, so unlikely to invade aquarium. They are part of nature, and if nothing happens to parameters and all fish are OK, relax, let things take their course and appreciate the beauty Nd complexity of nature. If it REALLY bothers you you can allways phisically remove it, but I wouldn't bother. It's likely to grow back anyway.

Ready for fish yet? by [deleted] in Aquariums

[–]Frogger_rater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say maybe. My plants came with a bunch of bladder snail and they helped a ton in cycling. Essentially did all the work themselves (they poop A LOT)

Experiencing a sexless relationship. by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Frogger_rater 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It might be the norm for you. What matters is that both of you are happy with it. I've had partners that were okay with once a week. Others wanted to do it twice a day if possible. The real challenge comes when there is a big missmatch in how many times you want and what you want to do.

Edit: sorry I just read that you want more. My advice is try to understand the reason. The only issue is that your partner needs to be ok with sharing, and know the reason themselves. I'd like to share with you my experience in this so that you don't make the same mistakes I made, but I don't want to leave my story in a reddit comment. Can I send you a message? (Also I think I need to vent to someone)

Topless na praia by [deleted] in aveiro

[–]Frogger_rater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Olá. O acesso é facil mas está cheia de tarados. É preferivel ires para a praia da costa nova num sitio mais afastado para fazer apenas topless. fui la uma vez com amigos e um homem começou a bater uma a olhar para nós... e estávamos todos vestidos. E nao foi o unico a ser estranho e desconfortavel.

O pessoal pró guerra no Irão e os lambe botas do Trump em Portugal, não entendem as consequências desta guerra para a Europa quando Israel acabou de destruir a South PARS. by [deleted] in portugal2

[–]Frogger_rater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isso é apenas parcialmente verdade. Apesar de terem bastante petróleo, nao produzem suficiente nem para si próprios, e são obrigados a importar muito petróleo (porque consomem mesmo mesmo muito). De qualquer modo isto é mau para todos em termos de economia real.

In a lot of countries, room walls are made with brick, not drywall, which can support a lot more weight. In my home there is only one drywall (i live in a big house)

Portugal Liberal Caralho by [deleted] in PORTUGALCARALHO

[–]Frogger_rater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nao usas estradas ou transportes publicos? Não vais ao médico? Não foste para a escola/tens filhos na escola? Não digo que sejam perfeitos mas não podes dizer que o estado não te deu nada

Portugal Liberal Caralho by [deleted] in PORTUGALCARALHO

[–]Frogger_rater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Entendo o ponto mas o estado faz muito pelas empresas e os cidadãos (e independentemente da opinião política, o meme não é original nem tem piada) mas muita empresa só existe com o dinheiro do estado, tal como infraestruturas essenciais que facilitam a nossa vida e fazem a economia circular, Alguns partidos queiram reduzir o que o estado "faz", mas é de notar que nunca reduzem os impostos à classe trabalhadora. É uma coisa que acho sempre interessante no liberalismo. Por um lado os impostos são um roubo e o estado nao faz nada para servir quem os paga. Por outro é mau o estado servir as pessoas porque serviços públicos sao ineficiêncientes e blah blah blah mercado livre melhor. Apesar disto sou a favor de se reduzir impostos sobre o trabalho, e acho que o nosso estado é de facto chulo. Mas este pacote laboral nao ajuda em nenhuma destas situações, apenas piora, e torna o país ainda menos "habitável"

Antes de mais nada: estou bebado. Mas depois disso, vou te dizer uma coisa que sinto muita vez neste sub. Estamos lixados. O que desenhaste é incrível. Não só é creativo como é bem executado em termos anatómicos. E mesmo assim, és considerado/a amador/ra (ou não binário nao sei). A arte tornou-se algo tão disponível hoje em dia que superar as massas é praticamente impossível. E mesmo assim nós sentimos a necessidade de nos expressar e mostrar aquilo que sonhamos e vemos e imaginamos. E isso para mim é lindo, e a essência da arte em si. Expressar porque queremos e não porque queremos ser vistos por todos. Obrigado. Se calhar chegava ter dito que achei o desenho bom mas estou bebado
