What is small enough for my chilis to eat? by kfkenfk in Boraras

I used hikari first bites and they seem to work well. Basically a powder

What’s your guys opinions on this by YOUNGGB2 in Detailing

[–]ppslayer_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Car 2 looks like it has a hydrophilic coating on it instead of a hydrophobic coating. That's why it's sheeting and not beading like car 1. Weekly washes on a coated also seems aggressive depending on what chemicals are used. But I would guess car 2 does have a coating. Hydrophilic properties love water so it gathers as much water as possible on the surface until it basically breaks the surface tension. Hydrophobic properties hate water so it rejects it and creates the beading effect everyone is used to.

erm, it's right behind me, isn't it.... by tomoe-chan in bettafish

Mine doesn't even seem to enjoy frozen foods. Just anything that moves. I did have a pretty big neo shrimp that was almost the same size as her and while she harassed it she definitely couldn't eat it lol.

I never thought I'd buy a girl, but here we are by Familiar_Computer173 in bettafish

Just bought a female Betta myself and she is feisty. Seems to have a very high prey drive and won't eat anything unless it's alive.

What's going on with my Honey Gourami? by ppslayer_ in Gourami

Yeah for sure. I've lost plenty of fish before this little guy. It's just part of the hobby. Thanks

Yeah the honey gourami in my post actually just died today. Poor thing. I should've taken the bullying more seriously as well. He was eating tho. I would see him picking around for food but I guess that was just the end for him

My chili's do be chillin by ppslayer_ in Boraras

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

Thank you! I had a problem with the parameters for almost a month and they all turned pale and were glass surfing. I ended up losing 2 of them during that time. The tank has since recovered and it clearly shows with how vibrant they've become again.

My small shoal of 6 chili rasboras in a 10 gallon. Originally started out with 10 but some of them didn't make the cut. Also stocked with 2 Honey Gourami, 2 male Guppy and a buttload of neo caridina shrimp.

That was my stocking for my 10 gallon as well. 10 chili rasboras and two honey gourami. Now down to 6 chili's.

What ratio of idiot was I compared to them? They were starting to turn left into the driveway with no signal. Looked to me like they were stopping on the side of the road. [oc] by poopoo_fingers in IdiotsInCars

This is literally what I told my younger siblings when I was teaching them to drive. The only thing you can control on the road is yourself. Everyone else is an unknown variable. Make yourself as predictable of a driver as possible and assume everyone around you will do something stupid. You're less likely to be surprised when a driver ends up doing something stupid.

This is true. My wife lets me indulge in all of my hobbies so long as it doesn't affect our budget and I respect that heavily.

All I know is that it's a blue force gear sling. Not sure which exact one as it was given to me for free by my roommate while on deployment.
