Not really trying to do that. I just look at results and almost all reviews are in Dan's favor. Is he always right? Of course not but he seems to almost always be more right than wrong.

It would depend on the fish species. Some can be shipped in larger numbers, such as guppies, and some need smaller numbers. Not really a fair question as it cannot be specifically answered. Oddly, while I can't get a direct answer, Wet Spot seems to also have a high PH level of up to 8 yet we...

Mad scientist? Ya, I'm not fond of the idea of killing a fish to check the shipment but it is intended to protect the buyer. Would you appreciate getting a fish with parasites that infected other fish? If the autopsy shows parasites the entire bag is put in quarantine and treated. If...

Yes, he has a biologist that euthanizes a fish from each incoming bag and checks for scale deformation, parasites and gill issues. This is not speculation, it is a fact.

After quarantine Dan's stock does not stay around long so that MAY alleviate some of the hard water issues. A good friend and neighbor in my apartments drives to Denver every week to pick up Dan's new stock. The driver friend explained to me as to how the van for this was modified for the...

While I strongly disagree with the 'grab bag' thing I still believe that Dan's puts out good quality. Is he perfect? Of course not; who is? Still the on-line reviews, and reputation reports, speak for themselves.

Oh, I don't know... I sort of pay attention to preseason but not extensively. <edit> Forgot to add that I used to do NFL+ but quit a few years ago. Now I just stream the radio broadcast for the Browns and watch NFL Red Zone with no volume.

I'm having what I planned several days ago before I got sidetracked by BBQ. ') Country fried steak with eggs and hash browns covered with white sausage gravy. May add a couple of pancakes but not yet sure. I REALLY like pancakes with a runny yolk egg between the cakes. Good stuff. ;)

I took another brief look and don't like the interface. Still an interface is just that and, sometimes, takes time to understand. Where I'm having issues is actually placing objects such as plants and rocks. They are easy to select but not so easy as to actually placing to where they stay in...

Was looking through Steam for an interesting game and found the following. It is an aquarium simulation that is SUPPOSED to be realistic. It is to design tanks on your screen using an assortment of options so you can get a good idea as to how it will look in real life. Just thought some may...

Four days until football is back in town. :) The Detroit Lions will play host to the Los Angeles Chargers in the 2025 Pro Football Hall of Fame Game at 8 p.m. ET Thursday, July 31,

Another way to help with some bloat is to select to not look for updates early in the install of Windows 10 and 11. This does not only look for updates but, also. apps to install. Of course the install will still look for updates later but I don't think the later check includes the apps but...

Actually, if you are decent with a low wattage iron, that dead shift key could probably be fixed as it is most likely a burnt board trace. My very first system was an Atari 400 beefed up a whole lot. Actually a fun system to modify. ;) Anyway, unlike the 800 series which, for the time, had a...

Not really but there are a lot of ducks in my area that several people feed. I was just curious as to what should and should not be fed so researched a bit. Different animals have different dietary needs. I have a cockatiel and always research before trying new feed. Take avocado and apple...

I totally detest touch pads! My Surface, Mac Book Air and Asus laptops/tablets all have mice attached.

Be careful with feeding ducks. NEVER give whole kernel corn as, just like us, they can't digest. Cracked corn is OK. While there is controversy on this the safe route is to avoid feeding bread products especially to young ducks. The gluten seems to be the issue. Seems likely that the gluten...

Sort of funny about the water here in northern Wyoming. Little Goose Creek behind my apartment where Dan gets his water runs a PH of ~8 yet my tap water runs ~6.2-~6.7 depending on the time of the year. I figure the difference is due to the city's water treatment plant buffering the water that...

I couldn't deal with a 15 inch screen for long. LOL! I run 43 and 55 inch HDTVs on my main and a 32 inch on my second desktop. ;)

I remember an OLD singer my mom had when I was a kid. It was foot pedal operated but, if I remember right, had been modified to have a motor. The actual machine, again, if I remember right, actually folded down under the top to make it like a table when not in use. As to what I'm actually...

I MIGHT do it if I had both soft and hard water tanks that were under-stocked. First I'd talk to Jonny at Dan's Fish to see if he would let me know what fish were involved. He may or may not tell but we seem to get along OK at least to the point that he knows who I am.

My life is complete as I actually won an argument with a woman today... ;) ;) The question was if Dick Van Dyke was actually considered a clown. Yes, he was, especially in the earlier days of his career. :) He has always been a favorite of mine and I still watch re-runs of Diagnostic Murder...

While Dan's is mail order you can pick up and avoid shipping if local. Pick up has to be arranged so they know when to bag. Even if picked up they still package one fish per bag. You can arrange for a tour of Dan's but you can't just walk in and wander around. I believe the average PH of...

Personally I couldn't care less for either crab or lobster. To me both are pretty bland and tasteless and just something to dip in flavored butter. It is like me and Filet Mignon which I also don't care for. If you have to wrap in bacon to have any flavor it just isn't worth the price. On...

As is always the case with me this could change but, so far, tonight's plan is chicken fried steak (sometimes called country fried steak), hash browns and eggs. Mayhaps pancakes. I really like pancakes with runny yolk eggs between the cakes. LOL! Don't put down unless you try. ;) I always...

Dan was shipping to Canada but that is now on hold due to delays in delivery due to holdups in customs. If the customs delays can be solved he will start shipping to Canada again.

Apparently they function via Face Book. https://www.facebook.com/rehobothaquatics/

I guess I'm in Asian mode. ;) Chicken, broccoli, pearl onions, gold bell peppers and orange sauce. Chicken is almost to the point of black edges and noodles are close. I'll dump the noodles and veggies in the chicken pan and add the orange sauce turning up the heat to finish.

Yes you can be assured that any fish he ships is healthy. He even has a marine biologist under contract that I assume is from a local college. This person takes a fish from each incoming shipment bag and euthanizes and then autopsies to check for fin/scale issues along with organ degeneration...

HUH? Can't say that I understands that as all water Dan gets he gives back in better condition. Actually the creek is part of a nature reserve but he was given permission to use due to his water treatment.

Hamsters died on the spinning cage wheel? ;)

Just an obscure thought... ;) We all probably figure that balls and strikes will end up being called by computer within 2-3 years. We also know that the ball/strike calls have been terrible for a few years. Just to start a possible conspiracy theory I wonder if the bad ball/strike calls are...

Yes, it is heavily treated before getting to the tanks but not for GH or KH. Huge canister filters for sediment and goes through Ultra Violet treatments. Here is a quick video of the system.

Since Dan's draws his water from a creek that runs behind my apartments I DO know that it is liquid rock.

Not that I really care a whole lot but I'm going to make one more attempt to install Win 11 on my main. The thing with me is that I just don't like unanswered issues. Don't know when I'll get around to it but eventually will. ;) Since, when I do a new build I'll use the M.2 drives currently...

Ya, I know home has some limitations but none I really care about. I use VirtualBox for VM's so don't care about HyperV. Have never used Bit Locker and have no intention of doing so. Haven't had a need to use Group policy in years but, if I found a need, Group Policy actually is included in...

Does anyone else use a dish washer? Since I live alone, and could do a day's stuff in the sink in a few minutes, I still use the dish washer in my apartment. There are several reasons for this. The water in the dish washer is MUCH hotter than my hands could handle in a sink so it is more...

I think I forgot to follow up on my upgrading from Win 10 to 11. It looked like success when I quit trying to upgrade to my clone drive, which is in an M.2 to PCIe x16 adapter, and went to my actual system drive. The upgrade went fine and I ended up in Win 11 with everything working fine. The...

Granted that I don't do anything close to what you are doing with virtual machines but, at one time, I had like 7 machines going. With 16 cores I could not run all at the same time but I DID open all I could with leaving some cores for the host system. I saw very little increase in CPU heat or...

I think that I NEED to get a meat grinder; one with a hand crank would be fine. I was thinking that a mix of chicken and pork ground would make for a really good burger. Another thought would be using left over corned beef or roast and grinding for a burger. Also would be interesting to use a...

To add on... in my host Windows system I get download speeds of 431 Mb/sec according to speedtest.net on average. Using the NAT setting in a Linux Mint VM using VirtualBox I get download speed of 460 Mb/sec as it seems to be an actual pass through of the physical NIC. At least, in my case...
