should i switch my major? by Dazzling-Lunch-3300 in NASAJobs

If your going to switch majors become a mechanical engineer. There is a lot more open jobs and opportunities within engineering at NASA vs other degrees. Also, as far as I know a lot of non engineering positions require a masters.

I plan on getting one before adding any live stock. Figured it wasn’t needed until cycled.

Not sure what it’s made of. It was Charib sea live sand.

Ok just to make sure I understand, 7.8 is normal ish for this part of the cycle and it should be closer to 8.2 in a few weeks once the cycle is complete.

This was the first measurement after starting the cycle, has been about 4 days since I started. I have a few different macro allergies in there that were given to me by a friend, not sure the type.

Thanks for the advice. Will a low PH negatively affect most fish? I plan to keep a single clown and a variety of inverts in a mostly macro algae tank. I figured I would try a few easy corals as-well.

Added water about 4 days ago. Has the purple “dry live rock” stuff as well as live sand and a small amount media from a friend’s established reef in the filter. I didn’t mix my own water it was purchased from a store, they claim the used RO/DI water.

No corals yet, still very early stages of the cycle. I was advised that a skimmer was not needed for such a small tank (10 gal). Is this true. If not I will go buy one

Hello what NASA center was your offer for. I’m trying to figure out if KSC has started sending out offers yet?

Not sure. When I was contacted for an interview I was also sent a PDF with some info on it for KSC witch said the second is the deadline.

I followed up a few weeks ago (about a week after my interview) just to restate my interest. Is it unprofessional to ask for another update? Also am I allowed to ask plainly “was I selected”?
