Please Help! Freshwater Green Macro-Algae Control
2024.11.26 06:59 Busy-Wolf-7667 Please Help! Freshwater Green Macro-Algae Control
So I know this is a bit atypical for a post on this sub but i think i’m really going to need help with this for next year! (i also have fish tanks of my own so im not completely ignorant)
long story short: i have a natural pond/lake on my property i’ve owned for the last 15-20 years or so. it’s been consistently growing over the years… somehow… i’d say now it’s maybe about 20,000-30,000 sq ft (0.5-0.75 acres, 1/2 a foot ball field, 2000-3000 sq m) and 7-8ft at the deepest.
actual long story feel free to skip: when it was smaller the water was pretty nice and i’d see birds, deer, rabbits, & other animals around it. as it grew there started to be massive micro-algae blooms, and mosquitoes. it led to a lot less wildlife in the area, especially the birds (west nile virus and all that). the pond is probably about 5-10x bigger than when I bought the place. i assume it’s because of the lack of trees around it and a bunch of people (and a handful of farms) moving into to the area and are using fertilisers and overwatering lawns/crops. I took it upon myself to add some native snails, duckweed, koi, and minnows to the water to hopefully help take care of the issue in a more natural way… you know, without poisoning the water. it didn’t happen all at once but over a few years things started to get better!
the problem: it’s been steadily improving over the last 10ish years with new aquatic life somehow finding its way in… until this year. The pond is getting taken over by starry stonewort (Nitellopsis obtusa), an incredibly invasive green macro-algae. i know what harm its done to a much larger lake where my family lives, and really don’t want to see the same thing happen to this pond. there’s a lot of nitrates/phosphates in the water because of the low elevation/fertilisation in the area.
is there anything i can do to prevent this algae from choking out the birds or fish, and the greater ecosystem that’s been established here? something that eats green macro-algae? something to outcompete it without harming the wildlife? i really don’t want it to return to what it was like 10 years ago. please help

2024.11.26 06:59 Totatus God I wish I were cis
I feel so under developed. Estrogen robbed me of so fucking much. Height, strength, male bone structure. Why does this hormone gotta be so shit on your body. I’d be fine with being born with XX chromosomes but not going thru estrogen puberty. Anything but estrogen puberty. I don’t want to be a woman. I don’t want a female body. This dysphoria hurts so much that now I’m thinking misogynistic thoughts like “women suck” “women are trash” “women are pathetic”. I’m fully aware this is coming from my dysphoria and I don’t hate cis women. I’m so tired of being associated with Group I don’t want to be in.
I hate being in a body that was poisoned by estrogen.
I feel so pathetic. I feel robbed. I can only change so much while being on T and sometimes it feels like it’s not enough.

Horse-throwing dwarfs, a depressed genie, and an orc with a bizarrely cursed axe. Nehr Dewel is an utterly unremarkable demon stranded in a crazy world of goblin raiders and mad wizards.
And he's not the only one.
Will Nehr Dewel ever get home? Who are the Heroes of Harewood? And what was that about a band of Pirates and a terrifying Necromancer?

2024.11.26 06:59 Islaplayer671 Has YouTube tone down their regulations on profanity/Sillyness during live streams?
Anyone noticed that some of the HoloEN members like Nerissa, Calli and a few others are a little more unhinged now? (ie: Kronii saying kill me during Liar Bar, Nerissa cursing up a storm, Calli's member intro loading screen has profanity now) Not at all against it, cause more power to them, but its something I noticed since I last watched a livestream.

2024.11.26 06:59 Dracon_Pyrothayan What are the most dice someone can roll in a single effect with the new rules?
I'm working on my own (slightly sideways) version of Damage Optimization for the ✨New Rules✨, but I either need to learn how to program or figure out what the Most Dice is in order to know when to stop doing the process by hand.
I'm currently thinking a Thief Rogue who casts a 9th level Scroll of Conjure Minor Elementals would Sneak Attack for 10d6 +12d8 + Weapon Dice. You could lose one of the d6 to make it a Trip attack, and cause a flying enemy to suffer up to 20d6 falling damage as well, for a total of 29d6+ 12d8 + Weapon Damage.
Assuming we're not getting modern/futuristic guns, there aren't any multidice base weapons that can sneak attack, but there is the Vicious Weapon magic item that would let you do 2d6+1dW on the hit, putting us at 31d6+12d8+1dW = 44d#.
Can we get this higher?
