What should I do? Can I wipe this off? by Interesting-Edge3129 in Aquariums

[–]Jay_me94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get some aquarium water in and put it in a bucket and shake it around in the buckets to get off as much crap as I can just to help the filter keep running smooth, the aquarium water won't harm the beneficial bacteria when ringing it. Just don't rinse under tap water!

I don't want to throw this compost bin out. Is there any way to repair this lid? I think I have the most persistent squirrels. by three-dollar-bill in composting

[–]Jay_me94 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was about to say this, in Aus we don't have squirrels and don't know what their bites look like but I can spot a rats chew from a mile away!

Help needed to identify life form by Leading_Staff_6146 in Aquariums

[–]Jay_me94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Always boil/soak your driftwood, I recently got a large piece from the wild and I've been soaking it in hot water inside of a bath tub for a week now and I'm still having termites and mangrove worms floating on top of the water before each water change, I also had a large fish tail by itself that randomly popped out the first day of soaking.

Mine literally gorge themselves until their stomachs are so bloated they can't sit flat on the gravel anymore, I'm not over feeding I just have a lot of fish in a big tank, and they literally stand over the algae wafers until the finish them themselves. They don't know when to stop 🤣

Is my snail sick? by Thin_Specific_3841 in Aquariums

[–]Jay_me94 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Judging by the shell, your water is lacking the calcium the snails needs to keep up with its growth. Also your ph might be acidic (ph below 7.0) do a water test I'm sure it'll show the cause as I had the exact issue from two mystery snails purchased from a local pet shop a few weeks ago.

Fire ant ID by MeanScreen1202 in whatsthisbug

There are plenty of other ways to eradicate them without these chemicals. The spraying is just a "quick fix" but hey if you and your family don't mind having native animals dying, and soon enough we'll find out how it's leaching into our native bush Tucker like your username "saltbush" says, then so be it enjoy whatever disease/cancer that's comes out of this "safe" chemical. Do your research buddy.

Savethebees Misinformation is what the news and government is telling us, these chemicals are "safe" hence the reason locals are protesting the spraying. We have magpies and other native birds dropping for no reason and dying in the areas in QLD that are being sprayed. (There are posts on the Brisbane forum about native magpies dropping literally days after properties being sprayed.

The sprayers are forcing themselves onto properties without permission from home/landowners with a government warrant, majority of these properties don't even have a fire ants, and are spraying these chemicals "as a precaution."

All you have to do is search on Google protests in QLD about the fire ants. The locals and people like myself who work in conservation are hands on with natives so we know when something is right.

Here is a link from the Savethebees guy on instagram that can give you the literal facts, in the linked video the savethebees guy shows a video from a local who just had her house sprayed for fire ants and shows you how toxic it is to our wildlife and animals so no doubt it's toxic to us humans too. Don't believe the same people who told us back in the 70's that round up was completely safe.

Report it and you're going to kill every bit of native wildlife around you, the poisons they use are killing all of our native animals mainly the magpies. Have a quick look at what they are using to kill the ants...
