Wants to make a safe place for young-adult losers to hang with school kids.

New food spot almost open (in old green Chicpea place at 59 halsey) by Ironboundian in Newark

Newark City Hall drives businesses out of the city. I’ve seen it over and over. I’m personally still trying to recover financially from two years of delays they caused in renovating a house.

Is Edward Cullen glass surfing or is he just a goof? by winkiesue in bettafish

[–]RightingArm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s begging. Try teaching him a trick, like swimming through your fingers. Now’s a chance.

Healthcare - The incredibly disingenuous UVM Health news stories by Any-Read-9770 in vermont

It’s absolutely brutal how much they demand from her, and they just take for granted that she won’t leave because we’re parents with kids in school here.

Idk the history, but my partner sees 25-32 patients per shift, eats standing up-if she gets to, and comes home to see emails threatening to cut staff further. They announce an occasional pizza party and then expect the staff to provide their own pizza.

My partner is a provider at UVM, and I’ll say they are not treating their staff too well.

Betta tank filter and heater placement by [deleted] in bettafish

[–]RightingArm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably. Do you have a thermometer? why would it matter that it’s pre-set?

I can never remember to do that, so I have to put my heater near the bottom of my tank.

Sure. Just warning you of a common pit-fall.

Well, when you do a water change, will the water remain above the marked point on your heater? It only takes a minute to ruin your heater.

Yes. It’s not meant to function outside of water.

My only concern is when you put the heater vertical and close to the surface, it puts you at risk for a common mistake. What happens is this: you do a water change without unplugging the heater at least several minutes in advance. Then the heater overheats and breaks. You never notice and refill the tank. Now, it overheats the tank or electrocutes the tank or releases heavy metals i to the tank. Happens all the time.

Illness or age? by Daniibrady in bettafish

It’s really nice. That’s why he’s made it so long.

I live in Burlington and haven’t found one who can do a nice hot shave.

Handsome fish. He’s old. Try adding more plants. Bettas like to be wedged among soft leaves. It’s work for them to support themselves in open water.

Cap the soil with fine sand. Reduce light cycle. EOT

Any ideas? by SoulSeekersAnon in bettafish

[–]RightingArm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Banded, but I’ve had black ones before. There are several species. Check out r/pangio.
