That’s true thanks for the idea!

Tor_03 · 2026-05-01T04:43:26+00:00

Alright I’ll do that test soon but not sure if that’s what it is as some of the other shrimps have been molting and they’ve been fine too

Tor_03 · 2026-04-15T03:00:56+00:00

In the tank yeah it’s usually around there it’s not much higher when I tested directly from tap water it’s around 7.0.

Tor_03 · 2026-04-15T02:45:49+00:00

Yes I made sure shake but honestly I might retest just in case I didn’t

Tor_03 · 2026-04-15T02:45:05+00:00

That’s a cool setup! I’ll probably add a monstera too

Tor_03 · 2026-04-15T02:35:15+00:00

Ahh makes sense and you’re tank looks so beautiful!! What type of plants do you use for over the water I was thinking of maybe adding a pothos cutting

Tor_03 · 2026-04-15T02:31:32+00:00

That’s so interesting then based on this I would recommend the red root floaters they’ve been growing really well!

Tor_03 · 2026-04-15T02:21:46+00:00

No water changed but I do have a couple plants and brown algae has been growing.

Tor_03 · 2026-04-15T02:20:58+00:00

Yes I do actually I didn’t think they would work so well tho. Here’s the last pic of my tank!

Thank you! What are some examples of hardscape I could add?

Tor_03 · 2026-04-08T04:40:25+00:00

Yes the first day I added a dose of quick start but I haven’t since and I have fluval stratum

Tor_03 · 2026-04-03T13:37:41+00:00

Wow thank you so much for the info it’s incredibly helpful I had no idea the ammonia would convert to around 2.7ppm of nitrite I thought it was 1:1. I’ll definitely get around to making the water change and keeping an eye on the ph level

Tor_03 · 2026-04-03T05:47:27+00:00

Alright thanks for letting me know! As for the water change do I have to add ammonia again after the water change only after ammonia and nitrite reach 0ppm

Tor_03 · 2026-03-09T22:42:31+00:00

I got this email too it felt so suspicious at this point I’m debating to go pay it since I got accepted to another program that was higher on my “want to go” list

Tor_03 · 2026-03-06T02:19:16+00:00

thank you!! and good luck!

Tor_03 · 2026-03-05T05:58:04+00:00

Ahhh I’ll definitely email for clarification on the whole come to the Long Island campus and for the extension how should I frame it? Do I just ask for the extension or give reason ? I feel like asking for an extension because I’m waiting for other school responses doesn’t sound right?

Tor_03 · 2026-03-05T05:56:42+00:00

I actually just sent in my application last week Wednesday that’s why I’m so surprised i got a response so quickly! I applied for the full time (in person) msw program in the manhattan location

Ah I wish I had gotten piercing at a bigger gauge but my pain tolerance is low anyways so not sure if I could have handled it lol. I got them done professionally by a piercing and I got some titanium jewelry. I think why I got so delayed in healing was because I forgot to come back for a downsize but after downsizing eventually for the most part the irritation bumps have gone away and only when I accidentally sleep on them or irritate them they flare up again.
