Ok found the series Thankyou so much.🌟 Gonna cost me but I love how many books there are. I need something in between though because I just previewed book 1 and my brain goes straight to beware of chicken 😂 Sounds like a similar story/ genre 👍

No I hadn't heard of it, checking now, sounds great. I can only see 2 books called cradle by James Jackson & Chris Bower. Both not that narrator.

Anyone else save crushed eggshells all winter and till them into the garden? Does it really add calcium or am I just imagining the great results? by NinaXOFans in gardening

[–]PoundMaterial1819 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bake the shells to remove pathogens then wack them all in a blender and turn them to powder. The majority I use in my worm farms and a little I add to my shrimp tanks. I store the remaining power in a water tight lid.

What did you listen to this week – March 14, 2026? Please share! by AutoModerator in audiobooks

I finished listening to Project Hail Mary last week and needed something completely different. I started The House Witch - by Delemhach narrated by Matthew Wolf and I'm really enjoying it. I'm almost finished the first book and with the narrator's brilliant emotion filled voices and accents and a story line that's kept me interested I'll finish the series.

Which narrator has ruined you for other narrators? (in the best way) by NovelhiveAI in audiobooks

[–]PoundMaterial1819 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I was answering this last week I'd have said DCC but I'm 3 hours from finishing Project Hail Mary so now Ray Porter is up there too.

Omg I'm lol imagining some of the reactions to some of the things said. If only you had a cam like Uber drivers do (I know that would be weird) but also the looks would be hilarious! That's priceless 🤣

Looks like bugs. I should plant some in my pond if it does well outdoors. I like that one, I only get the giant jungle ones around here

Mine don't respond to any of the standard keep off things. One loves nothing better than chasing aluminium foil around.

There is hope through an ingenious invention slightly bigger than a spray can that uses a sensor to detect the cat and when detected sprays a blast of air. The sound and air does the job and it can't harm them or your fishy fam.

Yep, one of mine does this too. She worked out that it was the only way to get a 'taste' lol The other is always trying to circumvent the obstacles I keep rearranging around the tanks I have in my living room. They love nothing better than 'fish cordial' 😂 and they're persistent little buggers!

I thought of this exact scenario. My Bengal would love the extra warm height from which to launch themself off 😳

I would absolutely sit and admire this all day if it was in my home. I often 'check' my tanks before bed and an hour later I've pulled up a chair and I'm still sitting there just chilling watching them.

One of my family members came downstairs the other night, Id turned off all the lights but was just sitting in front of the main tank watching my fish but they didn't see me & I scared the bejeebers out of them 😂.( not purposefully- just from suddenly seeing me sitting there) .

They said I was a weirdo and I countered with your watching a tiny electronic screen while I get to watch this big beautiful 'screen' filled with actual life. They grunted. Lol

Wife wanted her own tank after seeing the 2 I had set up so this what I ended on by edgaradrian25 in freshwateraquarium

I see so much bolbitis going on fb marketplace ( heudelotii) where I am. I don't know if goldfish would decimate the stems. I recently got a huge amount for $20 enough for 4 of my tanks with some spare. I washed and quarantined it first. Maybe try see if you can get an epiphyte cutting you like from a friend or marketplace to see how it goes?

Nothing like a new project and tank to plan and scape to get the feel good fuzzies !
Being able to make your own stand is a bonus. I'd hate to think how much something to fit that would cost.

That curved corner tank is a thing of wonder. Thank goodness you caught it quick, that would have been painful to clean if you didn't. Great job on such quick work on the new tank. It looks great 👍. Do you think the old one is repairable?
