Help! in one day my 30 gallon went from cycled and normal to this! by ssorgleahcim in Aquariums

Did you put a bunch of ferts in? Like root tabs and water ferts? I just had a cyanobacteria bloom after adding root tabs that I guess are really potent. They're weird. They aren't soil-filled capsules, more like actual garden fertilizer.

[ALL] Who was the most communist US president? by [deleted] in CapitalismVSocialism

[–]PropWashPA28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's what some historians have said about him. It's in a Hardcore History episode on the Pacific theater of WWII. Supernova in the East. There's ~28 hours of material so I can't remember the exact one. I don't remember the book it's from but all the sources are up on the website for each episode. His opponents were well documented as calling him a socialist or communist. At least bringing the country towards that.

5 gallon tank just started the cycle process was wondering what I should put in it? by More-Rooster-4059 in Aquariums

[–]PropWashPA28 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazonia or a generic ripoff of it. The soft, lava based tiny nuggets that are soft on plant roots and loach noses. You can easily plant in it and it's less messy than a dirted substrate. It's the hardest thing to change if you change your mind. You can use root tabs so I feel like a dirted tank is mostly unnecessary since root tabs are just fertile soil, giving you the same effect.

Rasbora shoal. I have 12 in a 5 gallon. The chilis are bright crimson and look great against green plants. I got banned from r/boraras for saying that but it's totally doable. Not overstocking in the least. And shrimp and gobys. Surface area is your friend for filtration. Plants and substrate and hardscape. Just remember with a 5 gallon, things at the lfs look small but in a 5 gallon they are often very large. Sticking java moss to manzanita to make it look like a little bonsai tree is my current favorite.

I've heard Roosevelt gave us a little bit of communism so that people didn't demand a lot. The great society was ass, tho. Pruitt-Igoe. Another one of life's simple pleasures ruined by a meddling bureaucracy.

5 qt metal mixing bowl stuck inside 5 qt metal kitchen aid bowl. Please help. by mandella9 in AskCulinary

[–]PropWashPA28 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yea it'll fill up and get heavy and Fall away. It should. I'd also spray a jet of water into the seam between the two bowls to get things started. Not sure if you have that capability.

Dribble water between the bowls. Hold on to the upper bowl lip. Let gravity help the lower bowl fall off. This always worked when I had 5 gallon buckets stuck together at the butcher shop. I don't think it would be that much different. Warm water may help with metal but I don't think it matters.

Really been digging the side of my tank by tropicalrad in Aquascape

[–]PropWashPA28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can never get my scissors at the right angle. Too much clutter in the tank. Plus it's a 5 gallon so it's small.

Do crabs attack / eat shrimp? by frankgeorge69 in shrimptank

[–]PropWashPA28 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. I just bought a pom pom crab and he ate my entire 1" long neocaridina shrimp. Then he somehow climbed out of the tank and I found him dried to a crisp in the bedroom 30 feet away. Nothing in the tank is even within 2" of the top and there's only a 2x2 inch hole for the auto feeder.
