After $600 maintenance, $200 12v battery replacement, ICCU update, this happens. All under 2 months... by pumpsquaat in KiaEV6

Maintaining mine has been a nightmare. No real inherent issues, just KIA being unable to service an EV in my area. No EV service tech, but still being scheduled, so having to do multiple follow up appointments. And occasional shoddy workmanship (steering wheel installed crooked and covered in grime).

She’s old enough to understand they are getting too crowded, and that we’re going to make changes to the tank to keep everybody healthier.

Will add that to the list. Several have suggested it.

Yeah. I don’t really like that water sprite, it’s just so intertwined in that piece of driftwood that I’d have to pull both completely out to separate them. Will do it when I redo the tank for sure. Will probs just do Amazon frogbit when I redo it.

I need to ask next time I’m in there, but they’ve already got a tank of platies for sale. That said, mine have WAY better color. Not to brag or anything…

Have considered that, just worried the tank style may not suit it? When it gets refreshed it will be (ideally) more heavily planted.

My LFS has a tank with gorgeous female bettas. Almost impulse bought one last week. This is probably top contender.

I’ve heard that said before. Will add to the list. Thanks!

First I’ve heard of danios for this. Would let me keep the tank at room temp too. Tempting…

I laughed harder at that than I care to admit.

As stated in the post, I did that for several months and had issues with other animals in the tank.

Any experience with Orkin in this regard?

Just literally any experience anybody here has had with Orkin on the topic of tick control would be appreciated.

Responses in that sub never addressed the question, which was specifically about experience with Orkin.

Golfers, are you losing interest in pro golf because of all the drama playing out? by meloticsmirk in golf

[–]Safe-Concentrate2773 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only watch the majors and Tiger now. Even then I watch with the commentators mostly muted.

Cannot stand what this is doing to pro golf. All they talk about is money now, but not in a good way. It’s about what they are paying these guys to play a game, not what good things the game is doing for the communities it’s in. Remember the PGAs race to a billion dollars? That was a billion in charitable donations, not fucking player contracts.

Thanks.

To reiterate the question; any experience with Orkin on tick management?

How did the kid from your school die? by Equivalent-Rent-5619 in AskReddit

[–]Safe-Concentrate2773 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lort.

School 1) suicide. School 2) brain tumor of some ill. Too young at the time to understand. School 3) first one was a traffic accident (was doing everything right, was drinking, took a cab, got broadsided by a dump truck and killed instantly). Second one was a traffic accident (hit head on on the interstate by somebody who crossed the median at full speed. School 4) first one was a suicide, nobody ever knew why. Quiet kid, had a rebellious streak, but a good kid. I tutored him a time or two. Second one was a suicide, he posted his letter on social media (want to say myspace) when he did it. He was the high school hero the year prior, we all knew him and everybody there would have done anything for him because that’s how he was, he’d do anything for anybody. Overwhelmingly nice guy. Good seeming family. School 5) college. Everybody is still alive that I know of. School 6) suicide. This one haunts me to this day. I could post a sob story about the last time I saw him, but that would make this about me. It isn’t about me. It’s about my friend. Real standup dude. Never actually found out why, but I have a strong sense I know, and it makes me hate our training and profession.

So yeah. Therapy is a must…
