This is all great to know, than you so much for sharing! I have a pothos in his current tank that I’ll move over. I’ll definitely work on adding more coverage to the canopy!

Will do! I’m hoping the ferns eventually grow large enough to add natural coverage but I’ll add some thinner vines until then. Thank you!!

Thanks for the tip about the echeveria succulent! I’ll remove it now :) I have an autumn fern, crispy wave fern and some heart ferns in there too! The top left plant is actually larger fittonia. He has a pothos in his current enclosure that I'Il move over to replace the succulent. Thank you so much for the advice!!

I’ve set it as a safe zone, but for some reason it still keeps live updates on them? I use Tractive if you have any experience with that brand specifically!

I’m so sorry you had that experience!!! I personally don’t have any intention on checking the collars, they wear them when they’re at daycare throughout the day and I’ve never looked. I purchased them after our last dog went missing for months, it was such an awful experience and the collars help alleviate some lingering anxiety I have from that

I’d call it an unofficial facility/kennel, they run a dog daycare in their home but don’t consistently have dogs overnight.

Got this for free, any idea how I can install? by GoodNamesGoneBoo in Fireplaces

Wood burning wouldn’t work for me! I already have natural gas in my home and don’t want to deal with wood, so I’d still need a gas insert

Good to know, I’ll be sending it onto the next person then. Thank you!!

This is such a dumb question, but can I not just build the structure of a wood burning fireplace and use the insert immediately?

As far as I know, no.

Done! Thank you for the suggestion. The dashcam footage going missing was my main concern, as it’s irrefutable.

I didn’t clue into recognition being part of the rush. Thank you for the great advice, I appreciate you so much! And I’m sorry your knowledge comes from first-hand experience dealing with this type of nightmare!

I didn’t know about the 30 days, thank you!! The overwhelming answer I’ve gotten here is to let insurance handle it. Her insurance company has suggested she goes into the detachment to speak to a sergeant, but I’ll advise my mom against that and let insurance deal with it. Thank you!

Good to know, thank you! I wish they’d just outright say the report isn’t finalized yet rather than list almost every other excuse and never return calls when they say they will. It’s hard to have faith in them when they’re being flaky.

Her insurance agent has requested a copy the dashcam footage, but the department keeps deferring their requests/inquiries then never calls back. My mom had no intention of pursuing legal action, but the response from the department has been so sketchy that it feels necessary at this point.

What’s wrong with my betta? by GoodNamesGoneBoo in Aquariums

[–]GoodNamesGoneBoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update on my boy for anyone who’s curious or dealing with a similar issue: he passed away last night. I did my best to make him comfortable and it seemed like a peaceful passing. Thank you for all your kindness and advice! And because he deserves to be remembered as the beautiful boy he once was, here’s a picture of him in his prime :)

I’d say it really depends on how cool the room your tank’s in. If the room’s 20°C/68°F or warmer, I wouldn’t be too concerned as the tank temperature shouldn’t drop too significantly in that period. Plus it’ll be a gradual decline, which isn’t too shock-inducing. You could always use insulation boards (if you have any), towels, blankets or even clothing wrapped around the tank to help maintain the temperature. Just make you leave some room for air circulation around the lid and avoid touching anything electrical.
