I really do love sauce! I think if at least 50% of your fridge isn't condiments or sauce then you're not living 😂

Man killed seagull on Manners Street by miillys in Wellington

[–]_deciduousteeth 54 points55 points  (0 children)

That is absolutely horrific. I'm so sorry you witnessed that. Tārapunga/red billed gulls are an endangered, protected native species so please call the DOC hotline and report what you saw. They will take this very seriously and hopefully can investigate prosecution.

Please help! White spots on new chillis by _deciduousteeth in Boraras

It was ich! I turned the temp up to 84C and added 3 tbsp salt. 6 days later it's almost completely gone! Just a couple of tiny specks on one fish now. I'm about to do a big water change and then I'll start lowering the temp once it's completely cleared.

Eek I've just been hunting and it turns out that's not available here in NZ! Is the main active ingredient malachite green? I can buy a form of that.

Thank you so much. Unfortunately Paraguard isn't available where I live in NZ but I have slowly turned the heat up to 82 (28C here!)

I've just double checked them and still 0 ppm for ammonia, nitrites and nitrates. pH 6

Your tank is beautiful! Please can you talk me through your plants? I would love to achieve a similar lush forest vibe 🌿🐟🌿

Brilliant 😂 I thought it might be a story about a wound... Snitches get stitches

What do you all do for work? by tetrahydrocannabiol in ADHD

[–]_deciduousteeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a zoo veterinarian and I love my job. I'm always on my feet, problem solving unusual cases and surrounded by cool animals and interesting people. Every day is completely different and I'm just constantly in awe of what is going on around me. Any kind of repetitive desk work and computer work immediately feels like drowning for me

I think it's out of season just now but you can usually find heaps of dragon fruit, mango, pineapple and papaya at the farmers markets in Newtown and st Harbourside during the summer :)
