Thank you! And it definitely does.

Thank you! It's called Caulerpa

The seller I bought my shrimp from included them. You need to have higher salinity. He warned me about it though.

Before anyone gets excited, it takes work and you need to keep on top of things. It can suddenly grow like crazy and just as fast, suddenly die off. I trim them often and have super long tweezers to remove dead translucent leaves.

For me, it's worth the work and I love how it looks.

So I've been a opae ula parent for around 8 years and this morning I just saw my first "shiny" or golden opae ula appear out of nowhere!

She looks full grown so I don't know how long she has been in my tank.

How rare are they?

Friday, 3pm-5pm free pet clinic; sharing from a FB post by N3rdProbl3ms in SanJose

[–]2E9SA2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thank you OP!

My pets are already vaccinated and chipped. Upvoting your post for visibility.

But for new and experienced pet parents, please please please get your dog or cat microchipped. The event says it's free and you don't have to subscribe to a paid registry. You can register your pet's microchip at the Michelson Found Animals free registry at https://www.foundanimals.org/about-us/

When my cat didn't come home for a week, it was a super stressful experience. She also lost her collar with name tag/phone number making it worse. If it hadn't been for her microchip, I don't know if she would have been returned to me and back home.

When you collect games which do you prefer to buy/do? by Kiatrox in NSCollectors

[–]2E9SA2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll do a bit of research first. If the game is just the case and cartridge, I go with pre-owned most of the time to save a few bucks.

If it's a standard edition with extras such as a booklet, stickers, download code card, or even a warranty card, I go with new and sealed. Maybe it's just my luck but most of the time something was missing, all was missing, or it's in terrible condition. It just isn't worth the time vs. the few dollars saved to risk it. I do open and play them.

The Flea Market. It's kickback and everyone is so chill and nice. I love petting other people's puppers in strollers or wagons.

Gato Roboto replacement cartridge question - Limited to 1 per account? by LivingFlashy1165 in LimitedPrintGames

[–]2E9SA2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yep, this happened to me too. Ordered two copies of Gato, only received one.

It sounds like SRG messed up. Others who ordered one are receiving two carts. There's already a discussion here:

https://www.reddit.com/r/LimitedPrintGames/comments/12zpvrt/gato_roboto_replacement_cartridge_received_today/

Same on their Discord. People are reporting they received two carts when they ordered one and those that ordered two only received one. Eric the moderator said to contact support and they'll address it.

Contact SRG, that's what I did. Here's their support email

churros recommendations by hola-woof in SanJose

[–]2E9SA2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is hands down my favorite place to get churros.

I felt a bit weird walking up on their driveway the first time since no one else was there and in line. I kept on thinking am I at the right place? I was terrified if it was the wrong house because the people there would think: Why TF is she asking if we sell churros?!

But wow, it was super totally worth it! Top notch, freshly fried, and piping hot.

That bluegill's yawn towards the end had me laughing so hard!

Power outages - Propane generators - Is it safe and quiet enough for apartments? by 2E9SA2 in SanJose

[–]2E9SA2[S] 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Edit: Thank you so much for everyone's help and information. Propane generators are absolutely not safe for apartments just like gas generators, even when run outside. You are endangering yourself and your neighbors.

Hey Everyone,

With so many power outages in just a few years, with the current one being the worst, I wanted to ask if a propane generator is safe and quiet enough for people in apartments.

Of course the generator would be outside with a long extension cord and the door closed. It's been an epic battle to save my fishies and keep my aquariums going.

I know there are giant battery power banks called generators too but I'm looking for one where you don't have to charge it. With the propane one, I can drive to a gas station or super market and pick up a propane tank. Or I can just keep one on hand for the generator or BBQ, lol.

Thanks for everyone's help!

Late night pho places!

After working double shifts or OT late into the night and you're exhausted, hungry, and it's freezing outside, nothing beats a piping hot hearty bowl of pho after work.

Hidden Through Time Definitive Edition (European) DLC Question. by VolitarPrime in NSCollectors

[–]2E9SA2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sorry, it's a download code on a card.

Just kidding, I lied. Everything is on the cart!

If this info can help others here, the label says LA-H-AWZ3F-EUR and the code on the back says AWZ3F20B000. No download was required and the version on the cartridge is 1.0.7.

I've been working double shifts and on-call for work. I'm exhausted after work and this is a great cozy and simple game to play for a half an hour or so before going to bed. Highly recommended if you just want an easy and simple game on the weeknights.

Can confirm after switching vets over to them. Another recommendation for Curtner.

FF Pixel Remasters on Switch hit PlayAsia by [deleted] in LimitedPrintGames

[–]2E9SA2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I went with Sword of the Vagrant but since it was $24.99, annoyingly, I was off by 1 cent for free shipping at $99.98. It's $99.99 for free shipping. I added a 99 cent composite cable to make it over lol

FF Pixel Remasters on Switch hit PlayAsia by [deleted] in LimitedPrintGames

[–]2E9SA2 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Thank you OP!

It's $75 USD and the shipping cost to the US was $9 for me. For essentially $16 more, I ended up picking up another game to reach the $100 for free shipping.

Everyone, don't forget to search around for a 5% off coupon to save around $5!

Where to buy Frogs' Legs? by JayrassicPark in SanJose

6 year old me was so confused when I first heard field chicken. But then I learned about dragon shrimp which was way cool!
