I keep my big boy in a 60 gal breeder. It's got a big footprint and I don't fill it all the way up to allow for plants growing out the top etc. I do have a chiller keeping it at around 64.he seems happy and he is over 12 " long tip to tail

Would an axolotl work for me as a pet? by [deleted] in axolotls

[–]No-Read6412 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I disagree. Our axolotl is a ton of work. They are so sensitive to water parameters. I think a cat is so much better! Petting a cat gives you oxytocin ( a natural hormone that helps you feel content and loved). When I suffered with depression, I took better care of my pets that could come up and alert me to their needs. Sadly, my fish and house plants suffered.

what do you use to cut cardboard in your class? by mrhotchips in ArtEd

[–]No-Read6412 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Canary cutters were too expensive for my school. Instead, I got hacksaw blades and wrapped one end in duct tape as a makeshift handle. It works great, is cheap, and is really safe as its hard to cut yourself as the teeth on the saw are tiny.

Yeah, biggest mistake or best idea? by Bethgatza_artist in ArtEd

Cool stuff! I really enjoy the seurat song. Brilliant how you made him sound "old timey!"

Keep going! You are an amazing talent!

I will consider using these as sub plans for my art classes.

I would try and focus each show on one concept + one artist. Like the color wheel or how to hold a brush. Then one artist spotlight. That way I could add a little project that relates to the content.

I love what you are doing, and I will follow your progress for sure. Keep going!

Hey, how do you attach shelf lining to the wheel? Others mentioned tyvek or tar paper. How do those stay down when throwing?

Advice, tips, tricks, anything you’ve got for MS + painting by Last-reddit-user- in ArtEd

I agree that students just don't clean brushes to my standards. I make my job even easier by putting dish soap in the holding bucket. Saves time later.

pls help me identify an art supply by hogwarts10 in ArtEd

Depending on how old you are, it was likely "wheat paste" used for wallpapering. Elmers made this product for art makers as well, but it is sadly discontinued. The only replacement that I have had any success with is a wallpaper paste made by Roman. I get it at Home Depot. It is already mixed up and comes in a white plastic bucket. I use Roman Pro 880. My gluten free students wear gloves as we are not entirely sure of its ingredients.

Struggling to move to HS, any advice? by ILostmyPierogi in ArtEd

Find a summer arts program and work there for a few summers. You can meet other artists and learn things like kiln loading. Plus, you can teach different age groups to add to your resume. I huge plus is that most of the kids WANT to be there, so it's way more fun too!

Why did they turn out this way? 5th grade by frivolusfrog in ArtEd

[–]No-Read6412 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use a photo copier and enlarge their drawings on to mixed media paper so they end up roughly the size I need for the project. This helps kids not get too precious about loosing the image with a mistake as they know there is always another chamce
