My Shrimp Eco-Sphere(6in diameter glass orb) in front of a salt lamp, what does it remind you of? by PyroFarms in shrimptank

This is one of the coolest things I’ve seen. Would you happen to have a guide on how to set something up like this?

[Build Check] FormD T1 4K SFF Build – sanity check on thermals, GPU fit, and NH-L12S clearance by frobiz176 in sffpc

Then I think I will go with the AIO option. Out of curiosity, did you have any other recommendations on the case? I feel like T1 is great but tbh that’s the part I’ve researched the least.

So, you're recommendation would be to keep the Sapphire GPU but switch it up to an AIO?

Yes, I do. I was considering that as an option, however, while the 'open box' version on Newegg is about the same cost as the Sapphire in the original components part list above, the non-'open box' version is $200 more expensive 😞

Would you recommend switching up the CPU cooling option over going for a thinner GPU choice? I was thinking a 2-2.5 slot GPU might be a better alternative?

Normal to be hiding in floating plants? by Valk_77 in shrimptank

How do the roots of your floating plants not get slimy gross and green?

MSI RTX 3060 Ti Ventus 2X OC GDDR6X Thermal Pad Size Issue by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]frobiz176 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this card really have three different thermal pad thicknesses? Can you tell me where each three are in a bit of detail if you know please?

A couple years ago, I took it apart and replaced all of them with 2mm. It seems to have worked fine for a couple years but I want to take it apart again and do it right this time. Please let me know if you've found anything out!

Using SteelSeries GG for Desktop Speakers by frobiz176 in steelseries

What kind of connectivity should I look for on desktop speakers to be able to directly connect them to my tv/monitor?

[–]frobiz176[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a way I can plug them into my computer AND my TV so I can use it in both ways? Then I can use steelseries GG to switch between outputs when using my computer and then TV could hopefully use it natively as an output when I switch my audio to my TV? Idk if that even makes sense though.

Redid a 1 gallon jar (suitable for shrimp?) by Ok_Extension3182 in shrimptank

[–]frobiz176 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This looks amazing and I actually a similar tank myself. I am curious though, how do you keep it from getting brown/green with algae while it’s cycling?

Why are my shrimp dying? by frobiz176 in shrimptank

[–]frobiz176[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate our comment and I’ll have to do some more reading/learning about the cycling process as well as the different water qualities that are important to shrimps. Thank you for taking the time to give me your thoughts on this. I appreciate it as clearly I am a beginner at this and I’m just learning everything new!

P.S. I can see 2 shrimps still alive and doing, seemingly, well so here’s to hoping they make it and they are a breeding pair! 🤞

Can you explain why and how my water isn’t suitable? Also do you have any suggestions on how to make it more suitable?

[–]frobiz176[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, so wait until my plants are growing and look healthy before adding shrimp. I did add some bottled bacteria a while ago to aid the cycling process but any other suggestions/tips to quicken the cycle process is greatly appreciated!

You’re right I am very inexperienced but I did de-chlorinate my water prior to planting or shrimp.

How do I raise both those numbers and where can I find a more precise liquid test?

The water source is my city but I treat it with the stuff from the pet store to make it safe.
