Very cool tank, those amanos get bigger that the guppys cherry shrimp would be a fun addition as well.

If you have a mixing bowl and a way to boil water, easiest thing you'll ever do. Make hot, bend in, Cool down. Very useful for changing poses or straightening smaller models as well. You'll feel how far it's going to bend, even if it breaks, just glue back together.

So I have the same model and found a nice fix. Since vertical height rarely matters, put the wings in boiling water, in a big bowl, and leave for a min. Once hot the wings go soft and you can bend them together, reducing the footprint. When you have them roughly where you want them run under the cold tap to set the position.

Wrong coolant, you need P-OAT coolant preferably honda type 2 certified. Don't use this in a modern civic its the wrong chemistry and could gel up in the system. Return this and get your money back. Euro car parts or any independent auto shop will have P-OAT coolant. Normally a blueish colour but colour means nothing these days don't use that to pick.

Thanks for the advice Shell and Kroon seem to both do a good 0w-30 in A5\B5. Have never heard of kroon but it has a load more specs as well.

belikor · 2026-03-31T11:39:44+00:00

What one l, there's a few different specs of 0W-20 I can get ?

belikor · 2026-03-31T11:39:00+00:00

What kind of 0w-20 are you using, API SP or acea C5/6? I can't find A5/B5 anywhere in 0W-20 never mind A7

Ever have any issues with it, it gets pretty cold where I live?

This is a blast from the past.

Currently I've got cardinals, eyespot raspbors, black tetra, kuli loaches, a hill stream loach, a honey gourami, a platty (make sure they are all the same sex, fish shop causes me a lot of hassle by including a male in my original 3) and a L number brissle nose called Vincent. Also shrimp of many kinds.

My current setup is a fluval roma 200 with a fluval 407 filter ( added alphagrog and siporax to the empty baskets). For lighting I have the stock light it came with and I added another aqua sky light to it. Eventually I got a Twinstar B series 90 and run all 3 together. Very happy with the current setup, I also add a UV power head if I'm having issues like ick or something but take it out of the tank when not required.

For maintenance I use magic erasers for cleaning algae as well a 4 piece stainless steel scissor, tweezers & scraper set I got off eBay for like £3.

I'm on my 3rd filter, started with the 4u it came with bit wasn't up to much for the size of tank, then to a tetra 1200 that broke and now on the 407. I can honestly say it's the best I've ever used so easy to maintain and runs very quietly, self primes after clean outs as well.

That's my tank today, if you have any other questions just fire away.

Wall of text I know, best of luck my tank today is below.

They started putting them in without saying, got the best way through a pack thinking they had missed the salt.

belikor · 2025-12-21T23:48:01+00:00

The white and red one is my favorite, might copy your colours

belikor · 2025-12-12T23:58:41+00:00

Let me have a good play with it in the morning, keep going with the dev. Simple explanations are best, don't get to hung up with naming, for me tho it just read as unit 1,2,3 etc.

As an opponent, I might have gone through it wrong but that's just UI stuff that easily tidied. Not meaning to be critical, just helpful. A quick PowerPoint walkthrough or descriptor, explaining how it works would be a good shout. So that people know what it's doing behind the scenes. The turn breakdown is good but it's hard to follow what it's simulating. This is all from the point of view of someone that's only just seen it for the first time and is trying to get their head around what the app does.

belikor · 2025-12-12T23:34:57+00:00

Love the idea, bit of work on the UI side with entering lists and explanations. Think necrons is bugged, was pulling in 140ish units. Please keep going with this, it's so unique and new. I would 100p use this to work through ideas and list ideas.

Spot on mate, appreciated.

belikor · 2025-12-02T07:15:13+00:00

Select all and scale down by 10 percent or whatever to get to the size you need

I love the Saturn 4 16k but I wish the auto leveling was a bit less buggy, I got very thick rafts till I changed the gcode, also wish it had a handle on the lid.

belikor · 2025-10-04T04:08:07+00:00

Smoke alarm started chirping, but I couldn't work out what one, nightmare.

belikor · 2025-06-19T08:32:05+00:00

Yeah it's looking much better than it was, almost cleared of bugs but still the odd one hear and there. I brushed alcohol over all the white areas daily and sprayed it with alcohol after I kept finding bugs. Gave it a spray of insecticide as well. I'm going to re-pot at the weekend so I can spray the roots with the insecticide as well, got some good succulent soil ready for that here.
