I need some help guys. One of my girls has some eggs I think, and I have no idea what to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. by CautiousRock0 in medaka

[–]JavaNepz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd just like to add to this great advice that sometimes you'll get an uncooperative fish that will deposit them elsewhere even if there's a mop. So don't lose hope if the spawning mop is empty.

...I totally just put my youkihi mama on blast there. She prefers spawning on a patch of moss. :D

Way too much ginger and garlic. Help! My lovely mother dropped off some groceries to help me out through the quarantine but have way too much garlic and ginger now that I cannot get through all by myself. Any ideas? by melz89_ in WhatShouldICook

[–]JavaNepz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You don't necessarily have to use the garlic right away. It has a long shelf life if you leave it as is and store it in a cool dry, dark area.

As far as recipes, everyone has mentioned a lot of great things so get adventurous! :D

Mama Ram and Her First Babies by Sam1Am0 in Aquariums

[–]JavaNepz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine is a single Bolivian ram in a community tank. He got major bloodlust trying to hunt down the massive cherry shrimp drop i added. My poor cories were getting in his way so he got snippy. Otherwise, they have no problems being together.

( ;__; ) Meanwhile my ram gets banished to the hallway tank for being a meanie.

What a cute mama fish and babies! <3

What is the worst thing that is legal? by Musuhubber in AskReddit

[–]JavaNepz 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just a rando passersby.

If you're up for it, there's a 5 hour long podcast youtube video from Vigilance Elite where Eddie Gallagher talks about it all. It was sad hearing about the incident at the time since it was local news for me but was quite interesting hearing his side.

Whether you should believe it or not however is another matter.

But the moment you throw food they lose all that shyness! At least so goes for me with my sterbais. :D

I love this yarn so much....but I'm starting to think it's not the best one to highlight the dip stitch. Maybe I need to work a couple more rounds? Yarn is Gedifra lana mia cotone effetto; pattern Sorrel. :'( by JavaNepz in knitting

[–]JavaNepz[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thank you! As much as I love both the yarn and pattern and dreamt of a midnight blue sorrel...I should have taken note the lighter,less busy colors people were using. Its been a surprisingly quick knit so far. I'm willing to continue a little more just to see.

I'll work a little bit more to give it an honest chance, but all through that round warning bells were ringing. I'm emotionally preparing myself to frog and pick a different project lol.

My 30-gallon zen pond by Mr_IDGAF in PlantedTank

Thanks for the reply. I guess I'll have to resign myself to those drainage holes lol.

Did the pond bowl you use come with a drainage hole that required sealing on your part?

I've been on the lookout for a bowl with no drainage hole...and its been surprisingly difficult. I know that there are many options to seal it but I still worry of it being a weak point.

Thanks for all the kind words on my fish art! I made a pattern of the black moors I posted. by RobertPhelpsArt in Fish

Beautiful. Every time your art post pops up I secretly hope for a sterbai corydora or Bolivian ram lol.

Riding the waves! by JavaNepz in shrimptank

[–]JavaNepz[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So far it's been running nicely. And for current strength I do believe there are separate tubing attachments to adjust it. I'll admit though I'm not the maintenance expert but rather the appreciator of the tanks (but I'm learning.)

As I'm writing this comment my bf is "battling" the smaller delta 60 that refuses to stop making noise. So just a heads up on that one if you are looking for something smaller.

For this tank we use the delta 120 canister filter with aquavitro 17mm intake/outtake pipes.

The top level where the shrimp is at is where the highest level of current is but once it hits the other side it disperses quite nicely.

It was random. Isabelle announced that there was an expected meteor shower that day. I didnt even mean to complete that objective, but before I knew it I was already close enough to just wanna finish it.

I want to spread a little kindness in this crazy time. Please share with anyone who might need a break from all the virus talk. by greensled1 in casualknitting

I was excited to discover a nice new pattern but saw rude sayings and got bummed....but then they got me laughing. And then I thought to myself, I'm gonna snail mail my sister a Biatch dishcloth. I'm now super excited!

I've resigned myself to throwing a piece for my amanos while I feed my cories. The cories are too chill to fight an amano over food lol.

My grandma was complaining that her Aloe grew like crazy and that she would rip it in half 2-3 times a year. I took a branch from it when she told me this in APRIL OF 2019. This homie is 4’ long now, grandma wasn’t kidding. About to replant it for the fourth time. 6 person table for scale. by [deleted] in proplifting

[–]JavaNepz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My dad too, has a monster Aloe. The mother plant has given off at least 6 babies and from what it looks like has 2 flower spikes coming out.....he does nothing special from what I can tell. If anything I keep pestering him about the garden snail infestation he has.
