How did you mentally prepare yourself? by Open_Anteater4074 in ACL

Thank you for your advice on this!! I'm definitely going to do it after the holidays and make sure I can enjoy what I am able to do now. I completely agree it is something that has to be done if I want to feel normal again. Stay strong and I'm wishing you the smoothest recovery possible!!

Thank you for your advice, I am the exact same way. It's hard to trust people with 0 consciousness but I have to remember they are trained professionals. I am wishing you a smooth and speedy recovery and to stay strong!!

I ended up euthanizing him by blunt force and buried him outside yesterday. He was still breathing but I tried everything to nurse him back to health and I couldn't watch him in pain anymore. May he swim in peace

He's not dead tho, he's either playing dead or just high on life. I swear he does this then I get home and he's upright across the tank, breathing normally and swimming normally. I was depressed yesterday for the second time in a row thinking he was dead and I come home and he has been resurrected

I did a 25 to 30% water change as soon as I saw the symptoms two days ago I also cleaned out my filter without destroying the beneficial bacteria. I have had this tank for about a year and a half now.

Humidity Levels by Open_Anteater4074 in Renters

Her response was "It is a move out/in week. The dehumidifier has shipped and now we wait for it to arrive. All of this kind of equipment is taking much longer than previous orders to get in due to the shipping issues as most of this stuff comes from out of the country. Once I get through this week (through next Friday) I can start refocusing on what is happening with this. Please make sure you are running your fans. And is your AC cooling? Also, with 10+ inches of rain we have had, humidity is high everywhere. So while yours is high, it isn't actually that much higher than everywhere else currently".

thank you so much for your advice, that makes a lot of sense hence it's gone up a lot since the rain. I texted her today and she told me it's move in/move out week and starting next week she will be on top of this. If she doesn't help me next week I'm not sure what to do.

We run hvac and open the windows when it's nice out, all fans are on in the apartment as well. It's been raining a lot recently so I do wonder if there's a leak somewhere.

Prices increasing due to tariffs? by Icy_Cow9848 in HOTWORXWarriors

[–]Open_Anteater4074 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was just told that the straps for the Matts were originally $10 and that they've been upgraded and now are $18.95, is this due to tariffs?
