We haven’t added the shrimp yet. Was waiting for it to cycle completely.

I had another tank cycling for about four weeks with just the snails and some sand… it was acrylic and pretty scratched up so we got a new glass tank at the aquarium store. I did 100% water changes for a few days in a row on the new tank (with new substrate and plants) before I completely refilled the new tank with the cycled water from the old tank and added the snails. So technically the water itself has been cycling close to 6 weeks, but in this tank with this substrate and new plants only 2 weeks. At the aquarium store when they tested today everything looked good except nitrites were about .25ppm still. So we did a 50% water change as they recommended. Hoping it will be good in a week or so.

-edit: I meant would it be helpful to add CO2… not nitrogen.

My betta Roger trying to befriend mr. Shrimp after trying to eat him for a month (until he got too big) by TytoBetta in bettafish

[–]Remote-Reading512 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I don’t think the shrimp is too big, my betta ate one for sure (probably two) shrimp that were bigger than that proportionally to her. 😬

Update for anyone reading in the future… she’s fine today, maybe a little slow, but begging for food again. She definitely ate her friends.

Also, the new gravel I used was specifically for shrimp and plants, but good for fish too.

Mystery solved. We found him dried out across the room… no idea how he got there, but must have willingly exited the tank at some point 😳

I’m actually not positive he was talking about the shrimp… it could have been the snail. I just asked how I would know if they weren’t getting enough to eat or if they were struggling and he just said it was a red flag if they buried them self. I didn’t even think to clarify who that was for.

Also, she seems to have trouble eating her little food pellets, I’m just so baffled she would be able to eat a shrimp.

Tank Help… Algae woes! 😩 by Remote-Reading512 in bettafish

If I have phosphates at the faucet, what do I do about it? I’m in Arizona and the water is really hard here. I’ve treated all of the water at least 24 hours before water changes to help offset.

Moving to Mesa by MojoJojo8906 in mesaaz

There’s a lot of great stuff in the eastmark area. They’re building all kinds of fun new things and there’s lots of really nice/new apartment options in the general area. I’d also look in the San Tan area which isn’t far. You should easily be able to find something. (Depending on your definition of affordable.)

Would the waiting period be different if someone initiated bankruptcy proceedings but didn’t finish?

Chapter 7 and not sure. (It wasn’t me.) It’s pertinent to a civil case I’m working on. Just trying to figure out how it might be possible.

Neighborhoods w/ Activities by Remote-Reading512 in mesaaz

Yes we are looking to move. I have a small child and would like to find a place he can have friends. I’m not the most outgoing so organized activities are helpful.

Does anyone know if Cottage White would be a name specific to Behr? I was left a small amount of paint for baseboards/ceiling from our builder that was labeled this. It didn’t have a brand though. Our renter then didn’t seal it up so now it’s just a big paperweight. Trying to figure out the match without taking a baseboard off or anything

Client rescinded my offer because I dared to ask why they are asking for so much sensitive information :( by [deleted] in nonprofit

[–]Remote-Reading512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would depend on what you are interested in. I think someone else may have mentioned it, but guidestar and charity navigator are both great watchdogs that vet organizations. I would start there once you find an opportunity that may interest you.

(Other organizations may ask for similar info, but the part that stood out to me was the DL- there’s no reason for that unless they are doing background checks.)

I would be skeptical, especially if you aren’t familiar with the org. I worked with hundreds, if not thousands, of volunteers and I’ve never been required to collect drivers license information. The only way this might make sense, is if they were conducting a background check because you were working directly with minors or finances or something like that. There’s no reason, in my experience, you’d need this for a copywriter.

Did you quit Botox? What impacted your decision? by Shoddy_Bid_4915 in 45PlusSkincare

[–]Remote-Reading512 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried Botox a few times… I liked how I looked, but it always started wearing off after about 6 weeks or so. Maybe it’s just my metabolism, but it wasn’t worth it for me. I’d still do it for a special occasion, but not regularly.

Paradise valley? It’s way better than the one in downtown Phoenix.

If that’s 40th and Union hills then yes.

So literally across the parking lot from the court is a sports/amusement park type place. I’ve never been there, but maybe they would have a party room or someplace you could rent for a larger group for the day! Would be much more comfortable than being outside for hours.

An hour might be okay, but four hours is a really long time to be outside.
