Cute little bees for my bday week 💛🐝

Retail brand: Celebritips — my nail beds are flat and my last set was painful so I followed advice from y’all and used a lot more glue (Curvlife semi solid) and didn’t press down as hard. We will see about longevity but so far it feels and looks good! & yes ik I accidentally placed my ring finger press on too far from the cuticle but the glue already started setting and so I just pressed down LOL.

HELP! Hundreds of tadpoles!

We’re in Minnesota. Can someone please help me ID these tadpoles? We THINK they’re Gray Tree Frogs. We noticed them about 3 weeks ago and the biggest tadpoles still don’t have legs.

We have a leak in a return line of our in-ground pool and couldn’t get leak detection in until next week. Well, it’s been a month and we haven’t been able to treat the pool or run the pump, so our green pool became the perfect place for mom & dad to start a family. We have scooped out maybe 200 tadpoles but unsure what to do with them. Kiddie pool and let them grow up? But, will they grow up and all be hanging around my pool then? We will obviously be treating and using the pool after leak detection comes out and I don’t want them to be falling in and getting poisoned or drowning. I would prefer to relocate them but I’m unsure of the legalities and don’t want to disturb any local bodies of water or spread disease, etc.
We do NOT want to kill them!! Any advice is appreciated!

First set ever & love it! But my nails hurt like a B

Retail brand: Celebritips in short almond—Got these cuties at Tj Maxx and used curvlife glue at the suggestion of other flat nail-bed havers. I tried to flatten the nails as much as possible beforehand then applied. My prep included cuticle trim, buffing, and dehydrating. They look so cute but there is a dull pain under all my nails—almost like they’re being pulled upwards or squeezed. Maybe I pushed down too hard when setting the glue. Is this normal for the first day or do I need to remove? Besides that, I love the packaging and durability of this brand but they are perhaps too curved for me. Does anyone have suggestions for flatter brands?

The water level dropped right below the skimmer and didn’t go any lower. Does this mean I likely have a skimmer leak? Pump is off and I’m going to change all the wearable parts with the equipment just in case, but didn’t see or feel any leaks/moisture in or around the surrounding area. Google said to “ensure the multiport valve is not leaking through the waste/backwash line, as this can drain the pool”, but I’m a new pool owner and not sure how to check this. I’m guessing just unscrew the multiport top off and take a look at the gasket? At this point I’m considering calling someone out to take a look. 😑
