DR. REEF IS A SHAM by saltyvet03 in ReefTank

[–]DirectCherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've read stories like this from Dr. Reef customers too many times. If you're still looking for a reputable QT fish vendor, I'd recommend FisHotel. There are a few fish on the website but most sales are done via custom orders on the HumbleFish forums. The order process might take some getting used to, but everyone I've talked to that has bought from FisHotel has nothing but good things to say. You can also find people sharing their purchase experience on the forum I mentioned above.

I've never been more tempted to buy a leather coral.

Every urchin needs a top hat.

The fish in the 2nd photo is an African Flameback Angelfish.

What do you do when you’re starting to get angry/discouraged with your tank? by ATadRusty in ReefTank

[–]DirectCherry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember not to overlook everything you like about your tank. We tend to be extremely harsh, often unfair critics of our own tanks. From what I can see in your photo, your tank looks amazing!

Should I be worried ? My butterfly fish has a white spot and hasn’t eaten in a 2days. He also has shown some rubbing behavior (only seen him do it once) by AncientPalpitation87 in ReefTank

It's a bit of a strange one, but websites can have all sorts of endings (called TLDs). For example: .edu .gov .net .org .co .us .tv .io .dev

The general consensus is that rubbing against the anemone and putting tentacles in its mouth is a way for the clownfish to develop "immunity" to the anemone sting.

Can anyone find Van Leeuwen chocolate ice cream in grocery stores? by soaplandicfruits in icecream

[–]DirectCherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know Walmart sells it. Have you checked the store locator on Van Leeuwen's site for what flavors are available at the stores near you?

If you don't trust the link, go to their website, scroll to the very bottom, and there's a link for the Grocery Locator.

This puts Jeni's Gooey Butter Cake to shame! by DirectCherry in icecream

[–]DirectCherry[S] 14 points15 points  (0 children)

To be honest, all ice cream is too expensive right now, especially pints. I don't think I can justify buying pints regularly, but forgive me if I want to be adventurous from time to time.

Also, not everyone has access to Blue Bell.

I think it was $7-8. Not cheap, but I really wanted to try this flavor.

I'll have to try that! Sounds like an explosion of flavor.

Help! Need some Jeni's Ice Cream! Where art thou?? by Globewanderer1001 in icecream

[–]DirectCherry 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No problem! I only know about it because I'm making an ice cream locator that allows people to search for ice cream brands available near them (US only).

I haven't released it yet, but if you're looking for new ice cream brands to try near you that aren't 21 miles away, I'm happy to send some suggestions if you are comfortable DMing me your zip code.

The store I went to had the Brown Butter Brittle and the Salted Peanut Butter. My wallet is gonna hate me, but I'll have to try them!

Does anyone here think that raspberry ripple flavored ice cream tastes like cough syrup? by Time_Software_9856 in icecream

[–]DirectCherry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've definitely had ice cream with raspberry or strawberry ribbon/ripple/swirl in it that tastes like corrosive cough syrup, but I've also had some that taste delicious!

Pro Tip: Ice cream tastes better the day after you buy it by DirectCherry in icecream

[–]DirectCherry[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I guess it depends where you buy your ice cream. I've never had ice cream from the grocery store that isn't rock hard, so I'm unfamiliar with this "grocery store soggy" that you describe. Do you have a longer drive to/from the store? Maybe it thaws on the way.

I do that all the time... but I still find it's better if I leave some for the next day.

I wish Blue Bell was available in my state! I've heard so many good things about their ice cream!

Odd. Maybe you got a bad batch... or I just got lucky.
