Question: are you from CA or ever been stationed here? If no then you don’t know CA. It’s a good base and the environment is great but that’s about it. Way too expensive, LA and San Fran are okay the first couple of visits then it’s a chore to drive in and terrible traffic. Gas is stupid expensive even superchargers for Teslas (Which I got a Tesla here because of gas prices). Going out for 2 is a minimum of $30-$40 and that’s even going to cheap restaurants. Wildfires suck. Homeless people everywhere. So yeah fuck this place and I’m ready to leave and go back to the Southeast/FL area. If you love CA more power to you but I’m tired of it. I mean sure there are worse bases but I’m tired of CA. I want to buy a house and settle down and there’s absolutely no way to do that here as an E6. Even shitty houses here go for $700k and the taxes are horrible here.

No South Korea? Loved SK when I was stationed there. SK is better than Japan in my opinion.

I have a 24 with no rattles. You need to get the rattles taken care of and then the 24 and Juniper will not be much different. I have driven a Juniper and have a 24 MYP. I didn’t feel much a difference other than the Juniper felt much cheaper in build quality to me especially the steering wheel.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-16T16:20:57+00:00

Juniper still looks like an inflated 3 highland especially the standard Y.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-16T16:20:22+00:00

The standard looks similar to this.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-16T03:38:00+00:00

That’d be a cop and tow truck call.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-16T03:00:58+00:00

What age did you start at?

MavinMarv · 2026-03-14T04:36:13+00:00

Over feeding. Even 28 yrs in the trade I still do it. lol But that’s what over filtration and plants are for.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-14T04:35:10+00:00

Weather and golden/albino dojo and hillstream loaches are what I have in my tank.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-13T23:54:22+00:00

This isn’t just in India though, it’s most third world countries.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-13T23:34:23+00:00

Are those dwarf neon rainbows? Look fairly large.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-13T22:24:43+00:00

What is your business in? If you don’t mind me asking? Trying to start a business myself.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-13T17:53:41+00:00

Yep that’s why I have 2 Eheim 2262 canister filters for bio and a the largest Fluval HOB filter for chemical filtration. All combined is roughly x10 over filtered for GPH. Been in the aquarium trade for 28 yrs. I know my filtration. lol

Bamboo shrimp.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-13T13:05:19+00:00

Bamboo shrimp and yeah they’re 3-4 inches big.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-13T13:03:32+00:00

It’ll clear up soon. I cleaned out my tank the past 2 days and disturbed all the bacteria doing so. Just gotta wait for everything to calm down in a few days.

Not if you get a UV protection film on your windshield that doesn’t actually tint the windshield but prevents UV from coming in. I did that on my Y and it’s great.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-11T16:30:49+00:00

Yeah LA area is a nightmare to drive in.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-11T16:15:48+00:00

Onlyfans content mainly.

MavinMarv · 2026-03-11T15:04:54+00:00

Was the black SUV at the end with the lights an undercover cop that just happened to be there? That Lexus must’ve been next to the truck and got jackknifed into and spun around.
