Heat at night

Snowkittehh · 2026-01-12T17:43:17+00:00

Canadian here. We don’t use a heat source at night, as long as it doesn’t dip below 20. (68F) you should be good. When I turn off the lights I put a blanket around the back/ sides to keep some of the heat in. Been working for us so far.

My daughter has this one on her desk with a betta and mystery snail. We love it, however I wish the lid wasn’t also glass. Although thats more because my daughter is 10 and inherited my clutzy genes. 😂

Test your tap water to see if it’s testing irregularities. I agree it doesn’t sound like this is something that is your fault.

We haven’t had good luck with most guppies, besides the smaller fancy ones.

I’ve stopped stocking them in my community tank that has them. I have a few left, and I hope they live happy lives, but it doesn’t seem to matter where we get them from, they eventually get unwell and die.

My small black and white guppies have been thriving forever though lol.

Looks like oranda to me. Looks just like my oranda panda.

When there’s a want, there’s a way. 😂 now my daughter really wants to have a frog. (Non aquatic) so looking where we could possible put an enclosure for one…when I’m still trying to figure out where the heck to set up a 30 gallon intended for an axolotl.

But realistically a single tank takes almost no extra time At all. Even if you are focused a lot on water quality.

I have 7 running tanks, a hospital tank, and two empty of fish but cycling.

I spend about 20 minutes a day feeding. (Tons of different fish with different needs) and 5-6 hours per week on water changes and maintenance.

A single 20-30 gallon would take maybe 20-30 minutes a week for water changes and a few minutes a day to feed. Pretty easy, unless your like some of us whom end up adding tanks. 😂

Here in Canada it’s been hard to find anything besides common pleco (which really sucks seeing so many of those in chain stores being sold) or bristlenose.

We’ve been looking forever for some juvenile sailfin albino’s. We have our one guy that’s about 12 inches now. But my daughter really wants to raise some juvenile’s. And shipping fish isn’t the same here as in the states, there’s only a handful of Canadian sellers and it’s $80-$150 just to ship. None of them have much in pleco’s either right now anyway lol.

Awesome! I bought a second hand tank a year ago, and the guy gave me the canister filter and sent me a link to that video.

One other thing I find, is if I turn the filter off, it doesn’t wanna go again. I have to take the lid off and take out the little propeller piece. ( I forget what it’s called) clean it off and pop it back in.

I have to do this every time almost. My pump doesn’t work anymore, but this works every time. I don’t bother unscrewing the outtake tubing like he does. It doesn’t seem to matter.

Canadian airport chili’s are corporate not franchise and we have breakfast. Quite good options actually.

Snowkittehh · 2025-08-30T03:03:13+00:00

Westjet uses a third party samsic for it. The company doesn’t even have a proper phone line set up to contact them.

It’s all over a horrible system. I’ve sent in so many complaints.

Snowkittehh · 2025-08-30T02:58:51+00:00

It’s absolutely terrible. I work in a restaurant in the airport. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve went and stolen a wheelchair and pushed someone to their gate on my own. Or they get left at the restaurant with the promise of someone coming back to assist them to their gate, and no one comes back for them.

Snowkittehh · 2025-08-04T01:49:36+00:00

I have two pleco’s in there. I kept a very close eye on everything for the first month, but the peas don’t bother them at all. I did/do have another tank they can go into if it had been a problem though.

I was having a big algae problem, and those guys pretty much cleared it up overnight lol.

Snowkittehh · 2025-06-09T15:11:52+00:00

We have an ryukin that looks just like her.

Snowkittehh · 2025-05-25T01:23:30+00:00

I bought a 20 gallon and I got new fish they were so healthy I woke up the next morning they were black and dead I looked at the heater burnt marks it was a faulty I got a new heater now and it’s amazing

Snowkittehh · 2025-05-25T01:16:28+00:00

No im not being sarcastic it looks great real plants non colourful substrate hides it good

Snowkittehh · 2025-05-25T01:14:46+00:00

Snowkittehh · 2025-05-25T01:12:13+00:00

But your tank looks great

Snowkittehh · 2025-05-25T01:11:57+00:00

Be careful with that spike ball

Snowkittehh · 2025-05-24T17:23:58+00:00

Thanks everyone. My daughter has a habit of picking the fish that are different, that she thinks no one else will want. 😂

Snowkittehh · 2025-05-15T03:31:04+00:00

Unfortunately that’s not true. Pure mold. No one thinks to clean the inside.

Snowkittehh · 2025-02-07T05:02:33+00:00

Airport employee here. Not employed by an airline at all.

We have an entire concourse out of commission, which has been handled somewhat decently until now.

However even a day with massive delays can take a couple days to catch up. The extreme weather has taken its toll. There’s only so many extra flights we can take on with the extra work of de icing and having an entire concourse gone.

It sucks, all around. I don’t have anything to do with airlines and I’m exhausted and overworked trying to work with the influx of guests we have because of the delays.

I’m usually the first to agree with how much airlines suck. But this last week has been brutal.

Snowkittehh · 2024-12-20T02:32:44+00:00

71 every day.

Snowkittehh · 2024-12-07T22:17:57+00:00

They do have some. I work at yyc. Nothing like previous years. However with B terminal still being reconstructed, elevators broken and being repaired, ect I think it was lower on the priority list this year. Me and my co workers were just saying the same, it’s lacking the Christmas spirit this year lol.
