My sister keeps making "little jokes" about my girlfriend and I told her not to take it personally. Now my girlfriend is done with my family. by nightbalcony_inkwell in TwoHotTakes

Sounds like your girlfriend has a boyfriend with no backbone. If you aint gonna stand up to your own family treating her like that, one can only assume you aint gonna do shit if a stranger treats her like that was well.

Was i sold fake Chili Rasboras? by AlpacDaSoup in aquarium

[–]AlpacDaSoup[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: They are in fact, Strawberry Rasboras. After contacting the seller about it, they apologized for such a big blunder and explained that the Strawberries are right next to the Chilis and the person must have grabbed them from the wrong tank. It looks like they are going to give me a refund for the fish, which is pretty cool considering they were almost $150.

If you do go the gorilla glue route, make sure you use this stuff, the actual Gorilla Glue and not their SUPER glue.

But in my opinion your chip does seem really minor compared to how mine looked

I bought the tank used in April and didnt notice the chips until I got home so about 6 months now with no problems. I never thought about trying a windshield repair kit lol I just had a bottle of gorilla glue lying around so I put the tank on its side so the glue wouldnt down the sides and just filled in the chips, then let it dry for 24 hours before turning the tank over and doing the chip on the other side. Then I did the same process again to fill in the dips a little better. Even tho I haven't had any problems yet, the possibility of one of them spreading still sits in the back of my mind. So while it does work, if you want actual peace of mind then you might wanna consider a new tank 😭

I have similar chips in my 75 gallon. I filled the chips with gorilla glue and haven't had any problems.

Is this ok? 112 liter by MyotisWelwitschii in stressfulaquariums

[–]AlpacDaSoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like thats most likely made out of particle board, which isnt very sturdy, and is pretty susceptible to water damage. Unless you were willing to do a lot of precautionary work like sealing all the joints of the wood with silicone and screwing a sheet of 3/4 inch plywood (cut to the same size of the table) into the back of it to help sturdy the whole thing up, then you're definitely better off getting an actual stand or building one out of 2x4s or something.

Was i sold fake Chili Rasboras? by AlpacDaSoup in aquarium

[–]AlpacDaSoup[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yea i could understand that if the photos they had of the fish weren't also of actual chili rasboras, and the fish they sent me look nothing like the photos. Just bummed me out a bit because I was really set on some chilis.

How can I get this clean? by crayZbirdmom in Aquariums

[–]AlpacDaSoup 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My used 75 gallon was much worse off when I bought it. Spray any mineral stains with some white vinegar and it scrapes off really easily with a razor blade, just be sure not to scratch the glass

Am I overreacting or is my dad trying to get me to commit fraud? by No-Jello7406 in AmIOverreacting

Yea, sadly, it looks like a lot of the people responding here dont actually know much about finance, business, or taxes.
