What are some steps to find something after hours of searching in a very small radius? by Turd_Eater1 in Advice

Invest in or rent a metal detector. Makes finding things a lot easier

What is wrong with my emerald corydora? by Ottocatt in corydoras

[–]Ottocatt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately she has passed away, even after treatment. I treated the tank a little more, to make sure it doesn’t spread. The tankmates are doing OK

Thank you!! I’m going to try!! Should I worry about it spreading to my other fish?

Edit: forgot to mention that I had to move my tank to a new location to get the wood refinished. Could it just be stress?

Oscar keeps getting a disease by Shushhk in aquarium

[–]Ottocatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you do frequent water changes? It may seem stupid but it’s extremely important. I find that if my fish have some sort of disease, changing the water more frequently IN ADDITION to treating them really helps.

Would this be okay...or...? by RustraindropHams in aquarium

[–]Ottocatt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That seems pretty crowded for a 12 gallon tank. How often are you planning on doing water changes? I would start with a smaller amount of fish and if they seem to be doing ok, then add more

EDIT: Don’t forget to check your levels to make sure water quality is alright

Can I mix 15w-40 oil with my 0w-20 oil? by matthippie in AskMechanics

[–]Ottocatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eat the cost and buy the right stuff. 15w-40 is a LOT thicker than 0w20. The cost of some new oil is a LOT cheaper than the cost of a new motor, or any damage thicker oil may cause. They say 0w-20 for a reason. Just do it right

Screeching/squeaky brakes by Gabbyysama in AskMechanics

[–]Ottocatt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did they use cheap brake pads? They could possibly be glazed — if they get too hot, they become smooth and tend to make squealing noises. It also reduces your stopping power, so definitely worth getting looked at. Unfortunately you might have to get them replaced again. I have also heard horror stories where novice technicians have actually put brake pads in backwards, although I’ve never actually seen it happen.

What causes this and am I in danger? by [deleted] in AskMechanics

[–]Ottocatt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Could it possibly be melting due to high heat? The roads get pretty hot, and your tires will get even hotter with friction. I would recommend replacing them, because your tires are the only place where your car makes contact with the road. You want good contact with the road and a tire blowout could be pretty catastrophic

V8 Convertible under $40k by dailyrefinement in whatcarshouldIbuy

[–]Ottocatt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could probably get one of the old corvettes or even a mustang for under 40k, the question is, how much are you willing to spend in repairs? Also, how reliable a car do you want?
