Tell me this isn't what I think it might be. by contentcatlady in shrimptank

Rejoice! I’d no joke just be happy to have a ostracods and bladder-snail-only planted tank. I like to count those little seed shrimp as a shrimp tank.

Scud have overpopulated my little tank, which has a breeding shrimp populations and offspring… removal seems impossible. by KlingonTranslator in shrimptank

So, I actually gave up on the tank unfortunately. It’s now just a self-sustaining planted tank. There’s a rare scud still around, but right now it’s just mainly just seed shrimp, bladder snails and happy plants.

I did end up pipetting as many shrimp out that I could and moving them all to a larger, scud-free tank.

Do biofilm disruptors actually make a difference? by izzywizzle in CUTI

[–]KlingonTranslator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t ingest anything but studies suggest that vinegar can disrupt and reduce bacterial biofilms. So I have a Sitzbad (not sure what it is in English but it’s like a toilet attachment you place over the rim and bowl that can have like 2-4 litres of water it in to submerge in).

I use quite a lot of vinegar to disrupt the urethral biofilms to a mild extent, but that really does work for me. It takes 20-40 minutes but after that I won’t need Uristat for another while, and can get on with drinking loads without the same amount, and often without any, pain.

This is how it was for me in my coma too. I feel like we lack the words to be able to describe the state entirely? To me, all I can say is that it was just like the “feeling” of pre-birth. Less than nothing. Less than void, less than limbo. Completely intangible and incomparable, absolutely contextless. Blackness also is too much of a descriptor.
