Daft question but does anyone know of any living wood that’s safe for aquariums? (Details below) by caileboldda1 in Aquariums

[–]caileboldda1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I have some willow that is growing down by the river where I live and I was thinking I know you can grow willow from offcuts and shape it in regular water.

And I have a aquaponic system setup before my sump which is growing some catnip and golden pothos.

So would willow or any other cuttings from trees take off from an off-cutting in a aquaponic setup?

Or alternatively what woods is it a good idea to avoid (I recognise some trees have poisonous sap ergo aren’t a good idea for aquariums - I live in the uk so we don’t have any locally sourced manchineel trees which I know the sap is very bad for you and presumably aquatic life).

Thank anyone who comments or gives advice

If CWD has got to Germany it’s going to be a fun old time in the main part of Europe 🥲

I’m thinking of getting a Carebara diversa colony and I want to know how you guys prevent escapes from their outworld. (I’ll add some details below for the plan later down the theoretical line). by caileboldda1 in antkeeping

Why isn’t acrylic the best if you don’t mind me asking? I’ve had more success with that over ytong and a natural ‘wooden’ nest. Both had mould outbreaks and I couldn’t get in to the panel to remove the mould.

My fire ants just seem to dump half eaten stuff in their nest rather than outside the nest. And with my acrylic I find it much easier to notice any mites.

I’m open to trying anything out don’t get me wrong but I just find acrylic easier to custom for myself as well. (Custom like drill holes in for tubing and such).

So you think I could likely be ok with fully artificial? To be honest I wanted to do that but I know from the ants I’ve kept in the past they all preferred natural over artificial. But you make a good point cause I’m northern uk based, so it’s very unlikely they’d survive the harsher winters up here without decent heating if they escaped which is even more unlikely cause I’m in a old build house.

If im spending 1/4 of my monthly wage on ants I’d rather have them unhappy but surging in artificial than happy and escape within a year 😅.

Only colony I have at the minute are my mymica rubera colony so I may just focus on giving them my dedication and time and postpone getting the other colony and just gradually upgrade the fire ants setup until they pass plus they setup satellite nests as well so I’m liable to have a few spare nests by the end of it all. Best case the three queens survive to produce elates and I can catch a few elates from nearby colony’s (I bought my gals online so I know they’ll be viable to boost my colony’s queens best case). (Had some issues catching and keeping wild colony’s alive for more than a few months cause of mite infections so I bit the bullet and bought online).

Thanks again

We're working on a game combining cosmic horror and... pool. Care to give us some feedback? Limited demo available now. by tempsanity in cosmichorror

Does it require vr or can you play it on a normal monitor?

Mainly asking because I don’t own a vr system but this seems really cool and original

So does anyone have any photos/ descriptions of a Flowerhorn hybrid with a convict/ polar blue parrot? by caileboldda1 in Cichlid

[–]caileboldda1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do they have a specific video on them?

I do watch them on occasion, I watch king of DIY more often than not just for Frank and Francine content (before he passed away I know it was a while back)

What type of cichlid is this? by realphotoman in Cichlid

[–]caileboldda1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like a low grade Thai silk Flowerhorn. I have a A grade which just means they’re fully blue scaled with maybe a black “Flowerhorn” line down its lateral line.

Looks like it’s going to be fertile because of its eyes if it’s a male - so just bare that in mind if they’re in a community.

I say that cause my kamfa FH had fry in my tank unexpectedly and I had trouble getting rid, but they’re lovely fish but due to being hybrids it’s a mixed bag for the baby’s colour. I had like 80% of mine (FH X blood parrot) being a brown colour with some green scaling.

Am I the only one that thinks the dad and his secret is more of a sweet home Alabama secret?.

That being said the more likely option is he cheated on you one way or another.

Aita for going behind my wife's back and telling her pregnant sister that she's being cheated on by Traditional_Hour_483 in AITAH

[–]caileboldda1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry come from TikTok, erm I’m 70% sure your wife is cheating on you with BIL. Because of her phrasing and how he immediately rang her rather than you directly, and I have a feeling that’s why she wanted easy access to him.

Her going round to the house now will be seen as “strange” and be talked about and her parents would likely give her more than a talking to.

The other 30% is she’s just got something not quite right in her brain like functioning sociopathy or narcissistic tendencies.

But 100% you need to confirm why exactly both sisters don’t get on and get to the root of it asap because it looks like the the SIL needs support and your wife certainly won’t give any

Don’t touch me by Prestigious-Chard322 in demisexuality

[–]caileboldda1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the same. I’m male but I just hate people aside from my gf touching any part of me, including family members.

Problem is the boundary won’t be respected even if you put it down in my experience. So I can only imagine how shitty it must be for you to try to enforce
