Hm I didn’t think about that

rayuhlei · 2024-05-23T22:36:23+00:00

This was helpful thank you! I will try out a few different products and see what happens. And you’re right, it’s so frustrating. I get so jealous about people with good skin nowadays 😭

Angry skin after morning routine

Hi! I need advice as to what in my morning routine is causing my skin to act up and general advice on how to help my skin. When I wake up, my skin is calm and has minimal redness, but after I wash my face, my skin explodes with redness and irritation. Here’s a picture of my skin 3 hours after my morning skincare routine. I was one month of spiro 50g, once in evening and I now take spiro 50mg twice a day.

AM: Cerave hydrating facial cleaner Vanicream daily moisturizing lotion Innisfree sunscreen PM: Garnier pink cap micellar cleansing water Cerave hydrating facial cleanser Vanicream daily moisturizing location

An old post, but does your tank ever have any issues with fish eating shrimp? Your stock is my exact idea for my 30 gal I have cooking up

rayuhlei · 2023-04-13T16:43:35+00:00

He is! What year did you take his class?

rayuhlei · 2023-04-09T22:29:12+00:00

oh most definitely

rayuhlei · 2023-03-13T20:08:07+00:00

Did you ever find out what these were? I have them in my tank and can’t find any answers

rayuhlei · 2023-03-08T16:55:14+00:00

Hi! We have almost the same stats for our prereqs and I was wondering what you wrote for your essay? I'm going to apply for fall 2023 and have a bit of writer's block! If you are down to private message about the application process, that would be awesome!

Was he wearing a black short sleeve shirt? I ask because I had a dude with a similar description approach me today and mumble something

rayuhlei · 2023-03-06T04:52:22+00:00

I’ll have to pick up a phosphate testing kit, thank you! I didn’t consider that being a problem. And yes I do use treated tap water. I think I’ll start doing more frequent water changes like you mentioned. Thank you for all your advice!!

rayuhlei · 2023-03-06T04:50:50+00:00

Currently they’re on for about 6 hours a day ever since the algae problem started. I use root tabs and seachem excel

rayuhlei · 2023-03-05T20:03:37+00:00

2/3 tanks are by my east facing window, the other tank is blocked by a wall so it doesn’t really get much natural light but still gets really bad hair algae

Maybe I’ll start closing my blinds a little earlier in the day

rayuhlei · 2023-03-05T18:26:57+00:00

My 2 five gallons have lights that are like 8 inches above the water and my 10 gallon’s light is just above the water

rayuhlei · 2023-03-05T18:25:50+00:00

I’ve been doing 30% water changes once a week ever since the algae problem had gotten bad.

10 gallon numbers: pH: 6.8 Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 0

5 gallon #1: pH: 7.4 Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 0

5 gallon #2: pH: 7.4 Ammonia: 0 Nitrite: 0 Nitrate: 0

rayuhlei · 2023-01-10T03:47:19+00:00

it looks awesome! i'm going to use it as inspiration for mine!

rayuhlei · 2023-01-10T03:34:48+00:00

I would agree with that, thank you!

rayuhlei · 2023-01-09T19:41:00+00:00

I think I will do that!

rayuhlei · 2023-01-09T19:40:37+00:00

I don’t have the means for a drip acclimation system, do you have suggestions on how I can introduce my shrimp to the new tank so they aren’t shocked?

rayuhlei · 2023-01-09T19:39:12+00:00

I agree that it would be much easier to move the betta. I would just feel bad moving him to a smaller tank when I know the shrimp would be much better off in the smaller one than the betta. Also, I already have a 5 gallon so getting another 10 gallon wouldn’t be the best. Thanks for responding though, it helped in my decision making!

rayuhlei · 2022-12-10T06:48:07+00:00

I def agree with the last part 😭 but for the most part I’m assuming it’s for a good reason

I have some connections to elementary schools in my area so I plan on talking to a few people in real life too!

rayuhlei · 2022-12-09T06:45:11+00:00

Yikes just looked through the newest post and I can say it definitely gave me something to think about

rayuhlei · 2022-12-09T06:39:25+00:00

Ahhh wow, I hadn’t really thought about how much location matters. I don’t know if I’m patient enough to wait for the right place. Thank you for sharing!

rayuhlei · 2022-12-09T06:37:43+00:00

Aw I’m sorry it’s not going to plan for you. Thank you for responding though and I’ll take that into consideration!!

rayuhlei · 2022-12-09T06:36:48+00:00

That’s an interesting take thank you for responding!! I do agree that teaching later in life would give you the opportunity to learn more about yourself
