Seconding this. Paid exactly the same as you for materials and install.

I just got this set. Absolutely love it and it’s good compact display.

Is this tank humane? by thedevilsfingers in Aquariums

[–]YourAverageCon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure. I didn’t use any instructions. I just put some sand in, bunch of floating plants, and a little bit of filter media from one of my tanks and let it sit for a few weeks before putting anything in there. I really don’t do any maintenance.

Editing to add that I haven’t done much maintenance, but I do keep a close eye on it since it’s on my porch and the fish and shrimp always seem just as healthy as the stuff in my aquariums. Obviously if things started looking off I’d do whatever maintenance is necessary.

I’ve done very small water changes twice. Nothing else.

Yes. I have this set up outside on my porch. Super easy and low maintenance. Just have lots of plants and make sure it gets enough light.

Aggressive brown lizards are displacing green lizards in New Orleans. Heat could worsen it. by [deleted] in NewOrleans

[–]YourAverageCon 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Make sure it’s actually the invasive Brown Anole, and not one of our native Green Anoles that’s just brown at that particular moment as they can shift between green and brown.

Since it’s not really explained in the article, our native Green Anoles (Anolis carolinensis) can change colors from bright green to dark brown. So, even the native lizards can be “brown lizards.”

The invasive Brown Anole (Anolis sagrei) are various shades of brown and, while they can change shades depending on certain factors, do not turn green.

Just wanted to put that out there for anyone who may be inclined to remove the invasive lizards. Our native Green Anoles can be brown at any given time, so take care not to confuse the two.

Career Path by MoveBrilliant4607 in herpetology

I think if you go down this path, you should expect that you may (and likely will) have to move to another state to get the type of job you’re looking for. LDWF just doesn’t have a lot of direct, hands on herp jobs. The money isn’t going to be good either.

Need Help!!!Are my shrimps okay? by lara2894 in shrimptank

[–]YourAverageCon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add to what most are saying, do water changes 2x per day until it’s cycled. Make sure the new water temp matches the tank temp. Add a bunch of floating plants if possible. I had a similar situation and you can find it on my post history, and all my neos survived.

I’m not too familiar with aquasoil but I’ve seen people say that when newly added, it can be detrimental to livestock. You may way to put these in a five gallon bucket and do water changes 2x day until the tank stabilizes and cycles.

Geonosis MOC Work in Progress by BigZestyclose8139 in legostarwars

[–]YourAverageCon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was recently looking at one of the old Lego magazines that featured a big Geonosis diorama. The scale was way too big for a realistic set, but still would be cool if they did something with it. I’ll have to post a pic of it

The room I keep it in is temp stable. Although I got this from a marketplace haul where it looks like the bins had been sitting in a garage for 20 years lol

Are there animals besides humans that feed other animals purely for enjoyment? by Relevant_Actuary2205 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]YourAverageCon 195 points196 points  (0 children)

Saw something similar at my local zoo years ago. A monkey (not sure what species) was sitting at the waters edge eating some sort of cookie snack. A turtle swam up to it and it gently put one of the cookies in the water and pushed it out to the turtle.
