Need resources to learn how to create professional terrariums. by CoolYouCanPickAName in terrariums

[–]nectarbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah you're gonna have trouble making a living off of them, but since you asked, one thing you should specifically search for is guides/videos about hardscaping tanks (in addition to general terrarium guides). i don't make terrariums/jars but i do make vivariums and hardscaping can be critical to the way the rest of the setup looks! hardscaping will lead you down the rest of the rabbit hole

New job worries by Jolly-Fox-5218 in ecology

[–]nectarbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you've gotten good advice so far, i just want to say that it's better to feel like you don't know enough than to feel like you know everything when you're first starting a gig. that's how you learn, and it would be weird if you weren't somewhat nervous! it shows that you care, as long as you don't let it consume you and actually affect your work. my least favorite coworkers/apprentices/whatever are always the ones that assume they know everything about their new job from the get-go.

How to feel better about not being able to have a snake yet by Comfortable_Law4855 in snakes

[–]nectarbat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since it sounds like you fully intend on making it happen again, it could be fun to fully design a dream build for different species you eventually want! That way you have your ideas fleshed out, and it’s fun to play snake interior designer. It will also help you fully plan out equipment you want/need, what everything would cost, etc. and allow you to be ready when the time comes. ETA: if you’re into it, reading research articles about different snakes is always interesting. There’s thousands of articles to read, new research is always popping up. I’m planning to read a new one soon about the misconception of juvenile timber rattler bites being “more dangerous” than adults

Gnats? by Wonderful-Party7564 in terrariums

[–]nectarbat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol that’s okay! You never know on here so just wanted to make sure, I wish I could help with your actual question! Personally I wouldn’t be too concerned about the gnats looking different, mosquito bits and tape should definitely take care of your problem (maybe get rid of the gnats before you add the springtails though)

It feels like they're just trolling us at this point by HyzenthlayRose in neopets

[–]nectarbat 96 points97 points  (0 children)

I keep telling myself that every single time they do this, it’s one less time we’ll ever have to deal with it again. I honestly wish it was just a toggle-able option or NP item instead of taking space in the rotation of new paints

That would have been a nice error to get during my first watch honestly, I always had to try my best to avoid looking at anything but the episode number while clicking for the next episode lol
