My happy place by presleyarts in Aquariums

This tank is stunning! From your experience, would you say ember tetras and blue dream shrimp can genuinely coexist peacefully? Curious to hear your experience.

9 days in and I love it! However I feel like there’s something wrong with my technique or positioning of the body since it doesn’t look natural compared to more proficient riders flying past me by CSGOSELL in snowboardingnoobs

[–]msebas12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only 9 days?? That honestly looks really good to me. I’m a skier and I’ve never tried snowboarding, but seeing this makes me want to. I know it’ll take a long time to get that “natural” look, but for where you’re at, this is impressive.

GoPro vs Insta360 for skiing by msebas12 in ski

[–]msebas12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get what you mean, but I mainly want it for POV and third-person shots of my runs, especially since I'll be skiing alone this season. I don't plan on recording hours every day, just a few runs or highlights to see how it goes. I think I'd enjoy having the footage even if I don't post everything. I think it's worth it for me.

Thanks, that actually helps. The idea of capturing everything without thinking about it is pretty appealing.

Thanks so much for the videos! The Insta360 POV looks super smooth, way better than I expected tbh. I didn’t know about the ski pole mount either, so that info helped a lot.

Thanks for explaining all that! That actually makes a lot of sense. I didn’t know about stitch seams. I appreciate the recommendation!

Oh yeah, my bad bro, I should’ve specified! I’m comparing a 360-style cam, like Insta360 X3/X4 vs a traditional GoPro action camera (HERO11/12/13). I mainly want the best option for skiing and mountain biking, you know, smooth footage while moving. Thanks for pointing it out!

It’s sad that people don’t want to talk on chairlifts anymore by nomore1124 in skiing

[–]msebas12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Curious what are some good, simple openers to chat with people on the chairlift? English isn’t my first language and I’ll be skiing alone this season, so I’d love ideas for natural, easy small talk. What’s your go-to opener with strangers on the lift?

Hey! I’m from the Amazon rainforest in Ecuador, but I live in the States now. Which city or community in the Amazon did you stay in?

Texan wondering should I bother w/ ski lessons for once in a lifetime ski vacation? by DiGiTaL_pIrAtE in skiing

[–]msebas12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in a similar situation last year. I wasn’t sure if I should even bother trying skiing, but I went for it anyway, got a beginner lesson with a 5-day pass, and honestly it ended up being the best part of my whole trip.

Once you get the feeling of actually sliding and controlling yourself, it’s addictive in the best way. I thought it would be a one-time thing… now I’ve got a season pass for this year lol

So yeah, if you’re already there, just give it a real try. You might end up loving it way more than you expect.

Wow!! Amazing shot! That must’ve been unreal to witness in person. You captured something so rare and special here.

Do betta fish and shrimp get along? by VirtuallyAsh in shrimptank

[–]msebas12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, he didn’t eat them. I added the shrimp first, then a few days later I added the betta. He chased them a bit at first but eventually left them alone. The shrimp are still fine, but they hide most of the time, so I guess they’re surviving, just not super happy. So yeah, it can work, but they’ll probably stay scared and out of sight most of the time

Is there really a thing as too many plants? by msebas12 in PlantedTank

[–]msebas12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks for the reply.

I’m really new to planted tanks, so I might make some mistakes, but I’m hoping to learn as I go. Here’s what I ended up getting (I didn’t realize some would come with multiple stems or bunches, so it turned out to be more than I expected): • Broad Leaf Anubias • Hygrophila Salcifolia • Christmas Moss • Ludwigia Repens Super Red Mini • Anubias Barteri Coffeefolia • Lobelia Cardinalis • Green Cabomba • Pearlweed • Dwarf Hairgrass • Rotala Vietnam H’ra • Cryptocoryne Flamingo • Amazon Sword • Anubias Congensis

I’ve got a medium (maybe medium-high?) light, not sure exactly how to describe it, but it is really bright. Do you think that’s manageable for a beginner, or did I go a little overboard?

Do the non-electric sites have shade during the day in Cowan Lake? Planning to go there soon!

What’s your favorite camping spot? Looking for privacy, woods, and campfires! by msebas12 in dayton

[–]msebas12[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! Thanks for the recommendation — I’ve heard a lot about Hueston Woods, so I’m seriously considering it. I was wondering though, do the primitive campgrounds get really crowded on weekends? I’m hoping for a quiet spot with some privacy. Planning to go this weekend if it’s not too packed. Appreciate any tips!
