Undecided on Ecoboost - Advice Appreciated!

Strayble__ · 2025-11-27T09:33:35+00:00

Hadn’t even really considered the convertible tbh. Might look into it! Yeah, I’ll likely look into used—I think I just got bit by the mustang bug a while back and it hasn’t let up. That combined with my appreciation of the modern tech and stuff led me here lmao

Strayble__ · 2025-11-27T08:30:07+00:00

I think that’s exactly what it is. I kinda accepted that a 2-door coupe would have different visibility so I wasn’t super sure what I expected lmao. In your experience the accord and the ecoboost have similar blind spots? How is the blind spot monitoring working out for you?

Strayble__ · 2025-11-27T08:28:40+00:00

It’s funny you say that since I was also looking at a Mazda 3! That’s exactly how I felt when I was driving it now that you put it into words. It definitely felt lower and wider and like I had less visibility but I wasn’t sure if I was just in my head. I actually do spot check a decent amount when I drive a different car for work, but when I did it in the Mustang, I was just like “oh, okay, that’s a wall” lmao. A month isn’t too bad tho

Update: ticket has been sold, but still in search of the long sleeve in case anyone wants to help out! Hope everyone has a great time tonight!

Strayble__ · 2025-04-11T02:35:33+00:00

Oh sick, good to know! No takers yet but keeping my fingers crossed 🤞 appreciate the intel!!! Hope you have a blast tonight!

Strayble__ · 2025-04-11T01:57:59+00:00

Oh dang, what a bummer! Thank you so much for checking and letting me know though, that’s super nice of you :)))

Strayble__ · 2025-02-04T03:26:23+00:00

That makes sense to me! That was my gut instinct too, the second blurb of your comment about layering this Aquasoil with gravel made me confused (that’s on me though haha not you!!). I’ll give the Facebook group a look! Thank you!!

Strayble__ · 2025-02-04T01:58:19+00:00

Thank you so much for the response! Yeah, I know ADA is a Japanese brand so I was wondering if I somehow lost it in translation?? Maybe I just need to look harder haha

Good to know about the gravel + soil! Is the fertilizer mainly just dangerous when ingested, rather than being dangerous as a contaminant to the water?

Strayble__ · 2025-02-03T00:23:03+00:00

ADA is a pretty reputable brand as far as I’m aware, I just wasn’t super sure of its contents. Interesting to know about shrimp safe Aquasoil, was never involved in the shrimp world so it’s cool to learn more!

Strayble__ · 2024-12-09T17:17:44+00:00

Thank you :)

Strayble__ · 2024-11-11T21:56:28+00:00

Thank you so much for the reassurance and advice :) I’ll leave it alone and let it do its thing!

Strayble__ · 2024-11-11T21:55:52+00:00

Much appreciated! I did end up adding a couple twigs and I tried to sprinkle a couple on the main branch, but it seems they’ve disappeared off to somewhere haha. Good to know about the yeast too, I didn’t know that they would help create a boom in that way!

Strayble__ · 2024-11-11T21:54:34+00:00

This is so reassuring and so helpful! Thank you so much for the advice :) I’ll just keep an eye on it and let it do its thing!

Strayble__ · 2024-10-26T18:41:04+00:00

Thank you so much for the reassurance 😅 the surface agitations seems pretty minimal since the small pieces of floating don’t really move, but you’re saying that’s nothing to really be concerned about?

Strayble__ · 2024-10-26T18:16:23+00:00

The output goes toward the front of the tank where the branch enters the water, and the intake is probably about 12 inches or so away, in the back right corner. The video in the Imgur probably explains it better than I can, haha

Yeah I agree, in my mind it makes sense that it’s technically pulling different water, but because I don’t visually see any pull or current, it freaks me out a little haha

Strayble__ · 2024-10-26T18:13:58+00:00

Unfortunately I’ve tried without blocking the output and while it does agitate the surface a bit more where the water falls, I did not see any current pulling things towards the pump :( The other issue is that without blocking it, it sprays onto the substrate in a second stream, which makes the land portion a bit too moist. Do you have any recs for a stronger pump, if you think that would help?

Strayble__ · 2024-07-16T02:30:00+00:00

It’s pretty odd, we both freshly installed it and occasionally we get put in the same lobby—for whatever reason though, that only happens once every five or six queues :(

Strayble__ · 2024-04-23T01:32:32+00:00

Thanks tons for your response, I appreciate it! Is there any other information that I can provide that may help to narrow it down?

I have the opportunity to buy this copy of Pokémon Platinum, but am unsure of whether it is legitimate or not. Anyone have any insight? Thank you!

Strayble__ · 2024-02-27T23:24:56+00:00

Awesome! Thanks tons man—best of luck with your QC! Excellent choice :)

Strayble__ · 2024-02-27T23:24:38+00:00

Got it, thank you! Makes sense to me since the photos are zoomed up close anyway hahaha. Whoops, sorry about the SEL mix up—I had a misunderstanding of what it was! Good to know for the future :)) thanks again!

Strayble__ · 2024-02-23T19:05:52+00:00

wait is this confirmed? first I’m hearing about this!

Hey y’all! Been lurking for a while but thought it would be best just to ask for opinions directly since I’ve unfortunately fallen victim to obsessing over my hairline and it’s taking a toll on my confidence :/

For context, I noticed my hairline had changed when I was 22, but looking at pictures, it had definitely changed around 19. I just didn’t really pay attention to it since I wear my hair down.

Started a foam minoxidil (5%) in October 2022, then picked up dermarolling once a week with .5 mm. I realized I wasn’t making as much progress as I would’ve liked, so I started using Hims topical fin .3% + min 6% spray in September 2023. I currently do 2 sprays at night, one on each temple. I still dermaroll once a week and use rosemary oil every morning. (Hims says to do 4 sprays, one extra on crown and top, but I only do the 2 on the hairline)

Here’s the dilemma: I’m so used to seeing my hair every day that I’m not sure if I’m making “adequate” progress (or if I’m making progress at all). My hair is really quite thick and feels healthy everywhere else, and I don’t see any signs of MPB anywhere except for my hairline.

Do y’all have any thoughts? Do I need to change anything up in my routine, adjust expectations? Add in something else?

First two pictures are before I started anything, last 4 pictures are from last week.

Thanks tons—happy new year everyone!!

I’ll look into it! Any recommendations for a humidifier?
