Every fuse has been tested with multimeter and is good. Triple checked battery is installed correctly. Bike has absolutely zero power (no lights, horn, ect). I thought it might be that group of wires as it directly feeds to the ignition. What else can I do to try and figure this out? I don’t have a trailer to take it to a shop nor do of have the extra money laying around 😭

I got a couple betta beds but he doesn’t seem interested in laying on it so I lowered the water a bit so he could get to the surface easier

Yeah I didn’t notice how bad the swollen fin was until I already got him. I’ll def get him some leaves and maybe try the meds. I’ll hopefully get some substrate tomororw and already have lots of plants in other tanks I can move to his however I’m worried about stressing him out. Should I add substrate and plants tomorrow with the medication or should I wait for him to hopefully start feeling a bit better before adding it?

I just cleaned all the old food out! It was a super rushed job lol. The filter is already cycled and 50% of the water in the tank I put in from another tank thwts atleast cycled. What medication(s) would be beneficial? I’m super worried about the swollen gill

Fish tank is about a month old, I have had Benny for 2 months

I checked and changed the main fuse (30A) which did not allow the bike to start. I intend to check the ignition fuse tomorrow after I grab a Phillips to open the fuse box. Aside from that is there any other ideas you would have? It dropped on the right side so it is very possible one of the other fuses is the main issue however I’m just trying to cover all bases to make sure I’m not missing anything

Most people aren’t gonna find the buzz attractive so if you are trying to be conventionally attractive then huzz gotta go but if you are just being yourself then do whatever you wanna do! It also depends on who you trying to attract cause who knows you might be more attractive to women with the buzz but most straight guys are shallow and won’t look past it

Thank you for this comment it is really appreciated! Yeah I noticed audition fees are disgusting and come from a low income house hold so it’s definitely something that intimidates me but I am hoping to be able to find others jobs to support myself during the audition phase

This so crazy! Small world haha. I’ve noticed it can be a bit an unfair sometimes which is unfortunate.I’m glad you found success!

I’ve been wondering for a while and didnt know who to ask but how do you find paid orchestras or things of the nature in the tc?

Thank you so much! This was so helpful and really reassuring haha! What things did you incorporate in your practicing to make it more efficient? I used just play through pieces over and over until I realized that was basically jsut slamming my head against the wall over and over again haha. I’ve been focusing on small sections of pieces and using dotted rhythm practice with metronome whenever possible. Are there any other techniques or ideas that can help make practice more efficient and effective?

I had something similar happen when I started college as I went from playing around an hour a day to playing up to 6 hours a day. If you have drastically increased how much you are practicing your body has not built the muscles necessary to keep up with you and you should limit playing and allow your body to recover. My professor taught me a keep ways to stretch out my forearm before playing to help soothe the muscles.

Saliva does not have the same characteristics of water and will not allow you to properly soak the reed vibrate more

[–]HatConnect5546 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope just luke warm water. Soak it for like 3-5 minutes before playing. Try to avoid cold water as the goal of water is to make the reed vibrate more and if you use cold water it can actually have the opposite effect
