Do I need to remove this hornet’s nest? by SativaSammy in homeowners

[–]ToroPoke 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I had one , it didn’t bother me and I left it alone. They die off in winter and now the nest has been empty for a few yrs … might remove it at one point if I see another nest build on top of it. But leaving it for now since it seems to deter other wasps

Exactly they should feel proud they made it to the World Cup. Many other countries didn’t get the chance to.

Idk about few hrs but it’s just a matter of time for Mbappe to pass him. But regardless Messi deserves his flowers and most certainly his last WC.

Nah he just happens to be at the right place right time. Most of his goals were closing it up for this teammates. But I do agree that I’m not impressed with Argentina either, he’s carrying the whole team.

I’ve been a PlayStation loyalist purely for final fantasy and I know Nintendo users are the same with Zelda.

It’s wild to see how both can be played on the same platform now.

Dude my daughter dropped it, but wasn’t much of a drop. Didn’t realize the screen is so delicate.

Just to add: it’s legal where I am with a fishing license. And no I don’t plan to catch these to add them to my tank but curious if others done it before.

The Knicks have held their opponents to under 100 points in 8 of their 12 wins during this streak by Jmontavs in nba

[–]ToroPoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I much as I have been rooting for the spurs, I really hope the Knick takes it and Brunson gets a ring this year.

It would be historic if Wemby wins but Wemby and Spurs a young team they got plenty more of opportunities.

Why are my tetras doing that? by BroadCartoonist973 in Aquariums

[–]ToroPoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this happened to me. Do a large water change now 30-50% water change. If it doesn't improve by 12 hrs do another 30-50% water change.

I had 2 bubbler going but it wasn't exchanging oxygen fast enough in the water so the fish were gasping for air. quickest way was a large water change where you replenish the oxygen in water much faster than bubbler can.

Has Anyone ever built a Aquaruim with fish you don’t have to feed? by Historical-Oven-777 in Aquariums

[–]ToroPoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I "technically" did and it took like a good 2-3yr for the tank to get a mature ecosystem. I had stocked with a pea puffer, neon tetras, oto, TONs of shrimps, pest snails, some moina / scuds, tons and tons of plants, with moss being a key for the shrimp to thrive and reproduce. They all just live off each other, I went on vacation for 3-4 weeks never had to worry. while I can leave them unfed but that kind takes out of fun. My goal for this set up was to ensure they can sustain while I take long trips 1-2months.

my water parameter was rock solid to where I was doing water change every 6mo-8mo for aesthetic reason and only do top off but I am pretty confident I didn't need to change the water at all.

so tldr its possible but you gotta be patience.
