In 2009, the International Space Station flew over the Sarychev Volcano on the Kamchatka Peninsula just as it was erupting and punching a spectacular hole in the clouds. The photos and videos of it are some of the best we’ve ever seen of an erupting volcano from above. Take a look at the pyroclastic flows streaming down the sides of the peak as the station passes (shaking is the camera position adjusting as the ISS moves).

Can you recommend an online store (US) to buy tank supplies from? My LFS is shit and is run by terrible people so I'm looking elsewhere.

Sorry, I can’t. I live in Germany and could tell you some real good stores here but not in the US. 

But maybe some fishblr user can recommend some good online stores?

Someone tell me what the fuck that last fish is though

[cichlidcarl]

Bristlenose pleco.

[ancatmom]

I have literally never heard of this fish and it’s hella bizarre looking and I’m totally into it.

[cichlidcarl]

Very common here. There's even a long finned albino variety.

Why

[loremerchant]

This is demonstrating why you absolutely do not pour water on a grease fire.

[tha-spaso-koupes]

holy shit

[justalifelongphase]

Okaaaay. If any of you actually have a grease fire in the kitchen put the lid on the pan. It will suffocate the flames. Don’t pour water on it, and don’t freak out. Cook safely!

[gician]

Or throw flour on it to smother it.

NO, DO NOT USE FLOUR, DO NOT USE FLOUR TO SMOTHER A FIRE.

YOU HAVE TO USE BAKING SODA.

Throwing flour into a fire can cause it to combust and make the fire worse because FLOUR/SUGAR IS FLAMMABLE. One cup of flour into a grease fire can have the explosive force of dynamite.

The reason you use baking soda is that it releases carbon dioxide when heated, and CO2 is a fire suppressant.

I think we’ve found the source of our algae problem in the discus tank. Phosphate is off the chart. Time change some filter media.
