Care to guess?

Dothraki?

 

[mkutsch]

Close. But Dothraki sounds more guttural vocally... more like Greek.

 

[mkutsch]

I like your way of thinking though!

Ill stop boring y'all with my scholastics.

Manicotti or chicken and dumplings

Hey, anyone have any tips on what to do if you're going away? I have a 4 week chamber music (orchestral, I play the cello) masterclass at some place in Austria and I obviously cannot take my tank. Also, rules say no electronics allowed, so there's that...

 

[mkutsch]

I also have no top offs or resevoirs. Think it'll be okay for 4 weeks with scheduled lighting, a top off and like a 15 gallon ro reservoir?
My main concern is pH fluctuations and a lack of E elements.

 

[saltyfilmfolks]

you need an ato and a tank sitter.

 

[mkutsch]

That's what I'm worried about..:

 

[mkutsch]

My family will be there. If any problems arose, do you think they would be able to get the lfs to come on over? Or even checkup routinely?

 

[Scurvy]

Yeah, 4 weeks is tough without anyone looking in. I'm sweating a 2 week trip in August and need to grab a couple of auto feeders. Procrastinating the Apex model per the not so great reviews but don't know of any that i might trust more.

 

[Scurvy]

Some LFS do offer that service.

 

[mkutsch]

Meh. Dunno.

I have a tiny pederson shrimp acclimating in the tank:)

 

[Scurvy]

I'll have to google that shrimp, cant say I know what they look like.

 

[Scurvy]

Very cool.... Purple to Blueish legs?

 

[mkutsch]

Yeah, I've had ones with blue.
