Brand New 8 gallon bio cube

It looks familiar.

@Why-Me wait it out.

I refuse to let my nem die.
I need multiple WC and will go from there but I'd at least like something on hand in case I need to do something about it.
My waiting out all the other algae has gotten me where I am now.
I'm not going to go nuts dumping things left n right but those two red slime products seem to work great with little to no side effects, so I'll pick one and keep it here for quick use if needed.
Even if to just get it under control so then maybe I could wait it out at that point.
BUT currently I need to do something sooner rather than later, starting with just WCs and observation.

Chemicals will not resolve the cause. I usually just blow off the Cyano until it stops coming back. I recently had red hermits eating it away as well surprisingly.

Bonus points if you know the movie

At first I thought Kramer vs. Kramer, but the hair is too red.

It's just getting worse by the day and so is my nem

Home alone 3

I was gonna guess home alone I know that woman from the movie series BUT the kid was too young to be macaulay culkin
You sly devil you @sfin52

 

[Why-Me]

I tried to get my 9 year old to watch the first home alone last week and she was very uninterested...on a side note I busted up laughing my butt off.
Still a funny movie.

it's like somebody drinking RO water , he will demineralize his body.
Don't say it too loud, I like to have cheap RO water.

Had this discussion before...show me the science. That is like saying pure water is bad for you so drink the polluted water to get your minerals. The majority of mineral uptake us from your food period. All the minerals from suppliments just gives you expensive urine as very little if any is absorbed. NIH publications support this fact.

I agree. Nothing wrong with the North at all. There are buns-holes everywhere in this world. No reason to pick sides.

Yankee!!!


Hahahahaha.... plenty of snot nosed brats who need a belt down here in dixie. Their parents too, probably more so.

Agreed. Pure water wont strip minerals either. If you're sweating a lot you'll need to replenish electrolytes somehow, which is usually done thru sports drinks. Most nutrients are absorbed thru food. The minerals added to bottled water are so it doesn't taste stale from sitting on the shelf.

I use exclusively RODI for my coffee, makes a mean fresh press.

i use Aquafina for my coffee lol

My Ninja coffee maker calls for distilled or reverse osmosis water. The minerals in tap water will scale up the machine. So I just use the RODI and keep a gallon jug of distilled water full of RODI water. I use the same water in the french press.

I love this! Call me crazy, but the ***** put fluoride in the water in their concentration camps...and they weren’t concerned about teeth! I don’t drink tap water ever. Or any bottled water that says “minerals added for taste”

 

[Katrina71]

I drink tap water. I guess I'm living on the edge!

 

[Katrina71]

I guess my mom really abused us. She'd tolerate going in and out for a bit, then she'd just lock us out. Drink out of the hose she said!

 

[Katrina71]

Ok you guys, the trachy...sandbed, low flow? Should be happy in the same conditions as my plates or acans?

Low to medium, you will be able to tell once it inflates.
