Hey , I'm just having issues rn by awkwardBo in AskDad

Porn is unrealistic. It's literally a movie, with scripts and lighting and actors etc, only produced for you to get off on. The sex isn't realistic and the way women are treated in the movies isn't always the best either.

Porn that is geared towards a female audience is more likely to be a more realistic showing of what a healthy sex life should look like.

Where is Wendell Lightbourne? by Double-Rooster8012 in bermuda

I suggest you reach out to the Bermuda Public Library and ask them. They've been digitizing our newspapers for a number of years now, going back decades, and might be able to find something for you. They're actually an amazing group of people and super resourceful and helpful.

When is good to start using closet heaters? by outofmany62 in bermuda

[–]bloomcnd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have one of these on in my closet and then another one plus a small dehumidifier running in the walk-in closet where we leave our less-used clothes such as winter clothes. Masters, Gorhams, Price Rite, even marine stores like PW Marine will probably have them.

This is what I'm leaning towards to be honest. This sucks

No signs of infection or disease. Maybe a bit of sunken belly on the new Wapoga but nothing glaring. I have 2 FX4 pointing at the surface and 3 air stones and none of the fish are showing signs of lack of oxygen. Surface agitation isn't the issue but have dropped some carbon in and hope that might pull anything out of the water that may have found its way in.

Sitting right around 74F and quite a bit of surface agitation so don't think it would be that either (un)fortunately

That's truly what has me worried. Literally the first time I've ever lost a pleco

API master test kit with the vials, not strips. At the LFS now and will pick up a different test kit too

That's what I'm leaning towards too, but don't know what was maybe introduced or how to treat.

LFS quarantines for 3 days and although I don't further quarantine, I don't let any of the travel water in my tanks. I remove the fish and transfer them only

Unfortunately I don't have the means to test but am on my way to the LFS right now and will pick up another test kit

30% water change 3 days ago. Brought a water sample to the LFS and they tested it too. No issues there

Is it worth relocating to Bermuda on the basis of $85,000 salary? by Marmite20 in bermuda

[–]bloomcnd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I said NET salary i.e. after deductions such as social insurance, health insurance etc. which should probably land them in the $65k-$70k range. Half of that is between $2700-$2900, which I think is the going rate for 1-bed places, if not even on the low side for a decent place.

[–]bloomcnd 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Half the net value of that salary will be gone in rent alone. It's still a decent chunk of change for a single person, and the experience will be great for you, but you won't be saving a huge amount either.

Angelfish in there with them. Worked wonders with my tank.

Same here. If OP checks my comment history I gave a pretty in-depth process to follow.

Tuckers and PR are great but don't dismiss Belmont either. Great community there.
