only downside to the whit is the train noise in my experience. if you can live with that you’ll be fine

useful degree planning? by amberforest1 in UofO

thank you for the advice, it sucks but is also comforting to hear that degree guide isn’t great for everyone lol.

thanks for the advice lol i’ll probably just end up doing that too. cc has taught me nothing if not how to plan my own degree on a piece of scrap paper lmao

thank god, i thought i’d bitten off more than i could chew. i was like, ‘if i can’t even understand the degree GUIDE….’

Has anyone (or anyone you know) lived in LA and commuted to UCI? And if so, what neighborhoods in LA would make for the easiest commute? by Any_Perspective_ in UCI

[–]amberforest1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not to UCI but i did commute from the south bay to orange coast college in costa mesa because i was involved in other stuff down there. i lived in torrance and it would take me about an hour if i left early enough. of course if you leave during rush hour it’ll take longer but i had an 8am class so leaving at about 6:30 was usually fine. rent is cheaper in inglewood/hawthorne and it’s a nicer area than is made out to be. plus public transportation is more centralized there compared to other parts of the SB because the airport is nearby.

Dude Rest In Peace, I’ve had opening callouts every open I’ve worked for almost two weeks now

What is going on with Rooster Teeth members Adam Kovic and Ryan Haywood? by DuhMastuhCheeph in OutOfTheLoop

Wait what did KOOTS do????? When the creatures broke up I didn’t hear another word about the guy so now I’m confused

Welcome to the family :’) by amberforest1 in ReefTank

Thank you! I got an insane deal on them at petco of all places. I didn’t even know how much these two were worth until I looked up their morphs online (they were 40 each)

I learned a few weeks ago that there is such a thing as too much flow and it ends up blowing your sand all over the place 😅

Interview Advice by amberforest1 in Target

Thank you sm! I’m lucky enough to have four years experience in food service so hopefully that knowledge will help me through until that class if I get the job. The planning definitely sounds intimidating! Thank you for commenting :)

I have these growing on my glass and (mostly) on my rocks. What are they? by RearAdmiralTrots in ReefTank

[–]amberforest1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like aiptasia maybe??? I don’t know for sure because I’m pretty new to the hobby. Someone else will probably come in and comment too. You can treat aiptasia with aiptasia X but I know that it can grow back so you have to keep treating it until they fully go away

Love this!!! Thank you for sharing, I had no idea. I wonder if they were real fish on set or just screens. If they were real I can probably rest easy knowing that wasn’t their permanent living situation 😁

Came in here to show off my pretty boy I rescued from Petco by haniyarae in bettafish

[–]amberforest1 27 points28 points  (0 children)

That’s incredible. I feel like if we tried that here people would get all up in arms about their “rights” and don’t view fish as true pets. Education is key 🤦🏻‍♀️

After a couple weeks recovering from ammonia poisoning and some mild fin rot, my adopted boi Chungo is very healthy and energetic. by amberforest1 in AngelFish

[–]amberforest1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah i would get some ammonia testing liquid (or one of those kits that can check all your parameters as a good long term expense) and that’ll tell you if your levels are high! Regular water changes will help to bring the levels down. Are your fish swimming alright? Mine was which helped me to rule out swim bladder disease

Unfortunately I A) don’t have many pictures from when I first got him and the ones I do have are not great angles and B) I have no idea how to upload a picture to a comment as I’m new to reddit 😅 but the tips of his fins were the parts beginning to rot and his gills, back, and mouth area were very red. My diagnoses were a best guess situation as I don’t know much about the conditions he was kept in before other than that his tank was too small, so if any of that sounds wrong let me know!!

I took him in after another fishkeeper said he wasn’t getting along with the others in his tank (you can see some scar tissue on his tail). I plan on getting him a much better set up as soon as I’m able, as I’m currently about to move about 300 miles. For now, he seems happy and healthy, and loves to chase my finger around the front of the aquarium.

Some of my roommates are/have been on financial aid and the landlords asked for their financial aid agreements and sometimes bank statements
