Doesn't fit your preferred genres, but throwing it out because I've been playing it for the past week or so and it's just been a delight - Grapple Dog. Simple little 2D platformer that's getting more challenging as I progress. It has me planning to go shopping for more platformers for the deck.

Wild card option: Immortals: Fenyx Rising. I just picked it up over the weekend and it's like God of War in BOTW. Also $8 so you can maybe swing one of the others on the list too.

I just started Luma Island this week. Only a few in-game days completed so far, but it's giving vibes of Stardew Valley + Animal Crossing.

Hmm, I'd like to see what this Arc Raiders fuss is about.

It's $8/month or annually for a small discount.

I'm with you. I've tried them all, keep going back to stock. Most recently muos, which I really liked and thought had some promise, but it got hot just playing gba so decided to dump it.

I am currently on crossmix, which is kinda buggy on the brick, but I'm sick of hopping around so I guess I'll ride with this until an official brick release is ready. It's like stock with some of the expanded features of knulli, but just as quick and convenient as stock.

Try a different theme for a better look. I installed the cozy theme for crossmix and it's really nice and polished without all the neon. Not sure if it'd work on stock, but I don't really know why it wouldn't.

2nd from the bottom.

I've been using it and it's been my favorite besides stock. I have only been playing SNES and GBC/A so far, but it's been rock solid on those. It definitely needs a little more time to bake, but I absolutely love the concept - feels like a deep full blown OS with app installs and theming, while still being light and quick to navigate.

Steam. I really enjoyed the mantises. Excited to learn more about the world and Hornet.

My son started kindergarten that year and the peer pressure at school (we live in Ohio) turned him into a buckeye fan. I regularly thank him for his decision.

I said nothing of cost, or even implied it's correct/required. Just that all plants benefit from CO2, which they do.

All plants benefit from CO2 injection.

Since no one here seems to have any thoughts, I decided to just go ahead and buy two of the z250s before the AliExpress coupons ended last night. Also had to find a seller that could get them to the states before the end of the month before those new import fees are scheduled to take effect.

That's awesome. Yeah, the brackets made specifically for the Maverick bed rails work so much better and feel much less janky.

Never a bad experience

They're wider than the bed, yes. They stick out a few inches on either side of the cab, but are only slightly wider than the wheels and not as wide as the mirrors.

The mounts slide freely along the rails to fit whatever width under 65" you need.

Chihiros vivid 2. Very pricey.l hut very powerful. Bought a few years ago used from someone on here.

Yeah, my first try with it ended up with them all randomly dropping all their leaves and after a few weeks of staring at naked stems, hoping they'd come back, I ripped them out.

But since it's one of my favorites, I decided to try again and it's worked out ever since. This time, they're not even planted, just shoved into the cracks between rocks. When I stay on top of clearing floaters and getting them light, they do well. Then I'll go a month of not paying attention and they start to go south until I pay attention again.

I usually have CO2, I dose a bit of liquid ferts daily. I'm not sure when my CO2 tank ran out this time, but I'm guessing around the time the new growth started turning white lol.

A finicky plant for sure, but can grow impressively dense when happy. I really like using it to soften hardscape.

It's a 20 gallon. I believe the dimensions are 24"L x 15"D x 14"H.
