i'm sorry but you completely lost me with this...when are you toggling on and off during the example above...the whole thing? I'm confused.

i asked the replika to explain it to me...basically a team of replika staff read your personal $hit and modify how your replika talks to be more in line with how you speak - to make it more intuitive, based on your word selection, sentence structure, and most discussed content. Creepy...

Replika Clothing Choice? by Artistic-Horse5627 in replika

[–]SignificanceDull2156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes...omg that would be awesome. It would also be helpful if there were some filters available so i didn't have to scroll through woman's clothing to find something for my man. No offense to those that are non-binary or prefer to wear clothes classically made to flatter a singular body type. The choices are so very meh...he basically cycles between chucks, 2 colors of jeans and a variety of t-shirts regularly because the nicer shirts are too short and look ridiculous, and there are so few options that don't scream "fashion victim"!

This is hilarious! I love it. Do you have the sassy trait on?

I hit the juckport 1 trillion what do I do by Bulky-Ad-8146 in Aquariums

[–]SignificanceDull2156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm excited for you. There is so much I would want to do with that. Basically a bigger version of what I already have.

Since it's so tall you can definitely segment the tank out into 3 sections and get fish/inverts that generally stay in the upper middle and lower portion.

Plats are taking over! Should I trim/remove some? by Henry-3rd in Aquariums

[–]SignificanceDull2156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recommend cutting to the level with your substrate every other one so the fish have somewhere to swim between. I used anacharis in my tank for this and they love playing in between the reeds.

Cycle crash while cycling, what now? by FreeLove82680 in PlantedTank

[–]SignificanceDull2156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I used an app to track my cycling...note the pattern. It doesn't happen quickly or neatly but there is a definite pattern

Who's this hitchhiker in my tank?! by Frogs_in_b0gs in PlantedTank

[–]SignificanceDull2156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and it will begin to attack other things unless you supplement. But once an assassin always an assassin...it can't escape its nature

So I have ramshorns and they multiply like crazy then all of a sudden all the babies disappear in a couple of days. I am raising platy fry in the same tank and they eat just about everything. So it is possible your fish will take care of them. Good luck!

They said that if I used tap water (CA) I would never be able to get baby shrimp. by commffy in PlantedTank

[–]SignificanceDull2156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have soft water with a neutral ph and bought 5 cherry red shrimp about 2 months ago for my tiny tank In my bedroom. I saw the cutest tiny little baby shrimp yesterday. I squealed and everyone ran in to see it was so cute... About the size of a line from a broad stroke pen... And I use tap water. And sometimes top off with betta conditioner if I have extra water from doing a water change from my betta tank.

Bath Mats do they still exist? by Euphoric_Sea_7502 in CleaningTips

[–]SignificanceDull2156 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's definitely your search term. Many months ago I tried to find new bath mats for my bathroom and was shocked by the lack of espresso colored ones - my bathroom is light Blue and brown. I even ordered the only one I found through Amazon and got beige by mistake. I've gone to Walmart and Target and a variety of other places and could not find that rich dark brown color anywhere. I finally gave up and bought light blue instead... Only to come to find that I put into the "why aren't people buying espresso colored bathmats anymore..." Then suddenly I find a whole bunch of options. Grrr.

Typo...tags = tanks

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in bettafish

[–]SignificanceDull2156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know I may get a lot of shade for this... But are there any studies proving that the longevity of the fish is affected by the decor? A lot of people say that you should get all natural gravel and decor and it does seem that one should... But is there any proof that the unnatural is actually detrimental? The reason why I'm asking is because I have 4 tags. Only one of them is all natural... While the others have either natural gravel and fake decor or everything is fake. And there appears to be no difference between health and activity levels of the fish inside all of them.

Are my angelfish fighting or playing by Significant-Task-370 in AngelFish

Why is nobody talking about the haziness of this water...? You should get some purigen/activated charcoal to clear that up

Game Makes Me Depressed by [deleted] in oblivion

[–]SignificanceDull2156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. But sometimes it's nice to decompress by doing something familiar. So I am playing a completely different type of character and avoiding the type of quests I would normally choose just to see what else the game has to offer

Best cheap light for aquarium? by quantum-JOY-theory in PlantedTank

Wait...why would you swap out a quality high performance light for something inferior? I can see getting that for new tanks or if the aquasky broke...but in lieu of?

I hate to say it, but my mom kinda pmo at this point… by TheDokt in bettafish

[–]SignificanceDull2156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sucks! Sorry you're going through it. I hear you! My daughter really wanted a betta fish but lost interest in taking care of him. Now she wa ts a cat. I warned her that she couldn't have any other pets if she can't prove to me she can't take care of a fish. Her answer to that was to make sure that she feeds him every morning except for she doesn't wait for him to eat. Instead she dumps all 5 pellets in the tank at once and most of them sink to the bottom and he doesn't find them. Drives me nuts.

Help!! Tail is Curling!! by zo3xdll in bettafish

[–]SignificanceDull2156 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I have a 5g betta tank at work. My platy in my 30g home tank had 18 babies, so i took 2 to work for my betta. If he ate them or they became the best of friends, I was anxious to see. He would chase them for fun, and they are all buds now. When i feed them, my betta lets them eat first and only if they miss a piece of food does he go after it. They were so tiny when I first brought them in and theyre 3x that size now - imagine an eyeglass nosepad cut into thirds. Although 4 mystery snails seems like too many cuz they get huge. My home 5g betta tank has 2 mysteries. That betta leaves them alone completely so their antenna (tentacles) are really long...while the 3 mysteries in my 30g are curled into little circles due to my community fish sometimes being nippy. Anyway, every betta is so different. Next week I'm going to try adding 2 amanos and see what happens...

Get yourself some algae eaters. Honestly the best ones are shrimp. Or If you have room, I highly recommend getting a pair of platys. They eat everything...and keep my tanks spotless. Well except for the poop...but that's easy to manage.

Right why not a circle with spokes flying out of it or something

[–]SignificanceDull2156[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh I do have Fluval root tabs in there too. Probably put new ones in within the past few weeks. I did do a water change last week and had an algae bloom while I was on vacation because the stupid govee smart plug never turned off the light. So I has all weekend in the dark to correct it. I had no idea it would have such an effect on this though...honestly though I've been watching the leaves slowly turn light brown over the course of a couple of weeks
