@dragonsofaquaria2
i think everyone has that one aquarium plant they cant grow
for me its anacharis.
EVERYTIME i try to grow it the plant melts and then never comes back and the stems begin to rot and thats that.
i bought a beautiful bouquet of 7 fresh anacharis stems- so lush and beautiful and a month later BOOM. they rotted.
How???? I’m told it’s practically indestructible?????
YOU TELL ME BECAUSE I CAN GROW ANYTHING ELSE

Snake owner question!
Any snake owner with long hair! When your snake gets in your hair do they kinda exhale loudly to get hair out of their face? this is the only time i hear Monty do that and i checked his mouth for RI signs and nothing. He only does that is my hair.
I've heard both Hego and Nova do this! Just the teeniest "hmph" noise.
so im considering to get a bp later this year (possibly in sept when the arlington reptile conference is) and i’ve started to look at bp.net to gain more info about care and husbandry and such.
i don’t want to get a tank for my hypothetical bp bc i see lots of ppl have issues regulating temps and humidity. so i’m wondering, for someone who is going to care for a bp for the first time, should i get a plastic tub or a AP PVC cage?
plastic tub is definitely the cheapest and better option for me, but i was jus wondering on some more input?
also i see such a wide variety of opinions on substrate, so do yall have a favorite that keeps the humidity good?
Sterilite bins are great! They come in lots of sizes so you can always have the perfect one for your snake. They are also easy to add enrichment and clean. I use multiple hides and a ton of bedding so they can dig, been thinking about getting some silk garlands and nets to climb on… just not sure if they actually will. One likes to climb sometimes, the other not so much. :3. Just keep a heavy book on top of each long side, as long as it is heavier than your snake they won’t push out and it’s not going to just fall off. I use aspen bedding because everything else gets soggy or they have trouble pushing around. It does smell funny sometimes? They'll poop and the next day it smells musky like coco husk does so I might switch to something else.

LAVENDER LEMONADE
Perfect for Litha and super easy and delicious.
2 lemons
2 spoonfuls of dried lavender flowers
75g sugar
2 c water
I found these ingredients on Pinterest, but this is how I chose to make it:
For every cup of water, add one lemon (sliced) and one spoonful of dried lavender flowers. Let sit in fridge for awhile (like fruit infused water - so good by the way), then add sugar to taste ☺️

I had been saving some melted snow since winter but it got yucky, anybody have ideas on the best way to not get moldy?
You'd have to make sure there are no bits of dirt and whatnot in it. Best to leave a wide container (I use a large salad bowl) outside while snow is falling, then go get it when it's as full as you need, immediately put it on your counter or in the fridge. I've never had mine go moldy.
Witch Tip
It’s okay to use the same three herbs in all your spells. It’s okay to have a simple altar. It’s okay to give the store brand as offerings. It’s okay to modify spells, chants, recipes to fit you and your practice. Being a witch doesn’t have to be expensive.
Just in case anyone needed a Maul reference for his tattoos, I found something!
Darth Maul pencil drawings, by his character creator Iain McCaig
Which is your favorite? ;)

Fellow Maul fans, it’s been one heckuva ride (so far..) And no matter what happens by the end of season 3 I just want to take a look at Maul through the years because…. feels.
TPM Maul: -silent -badass -hot -and strangely seductive??? -horrible dental hygiene -murders your baes and steals your heart -#SITH
Spider-Maul: -messed up -I mean wtf -broken in every sense of the word -needs help -and food -you just want to hold him
Galactic Domination Maul: -still hot -(hot damn) -v-neck shirt 👌 -has dreams to monologue about -literally is 100% aesthetic -murders your baes but you’re too far gone to hate him
Destroy the Sith™ Maul: -sass grandpa -no legs no shirt no problems -finally seen the light??? Hahaha no -magically perfect teeth -smartass -still hot like how even -Lady Tano
Destroy the Sith™ (more like Kenobi) Maul 2.0: -polo shirt -literally never shuts up -seriously he has no filter -still doesn’t succeed at anything -tries so hard -can’t take a hint -you think he just needs a hug
Really want more knitting friends. I currently have one (1) and it’s tiring to have no one to talk to about work you put hours upon hours into. Ya feel?
[Like/reblog if you knit and would maybe want to be friends?]
