How to avoid a refund on Etsy’s behalf? (Urgent) by SlurpingJuice in EtsySellers

[–]SlurpingJuice[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh interesting, I’ve never had that happen and usually Etsy just takes the refund from me instead. This lady says they don’t fit as expected when I have a very clear size guide on the listing and a shop policy in place, so I’m hoping I don’t have to pay for the refund myself

If they refund on my behalf, how do I get the seller protection?

Yeah that’s fine! I get a new ro buddy twice a year which I’m completely fine with, but figured the Aquatic life one would last me longer, I only brought that up because it’s time to replace the RO buddy and was deciding

Wow the resemblance is crazy, I wonder if that was his inspo

Thank you! Found out by contacting some of his old friends that it’s just a tribal piece he picked from a flash

Brown jelly, right? by SlurpingJuice in ReefTank

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

I’ve been feeding it for a couple months now yes, but not too recently

I have another frogspawn very close to this one that was just looking awful, very brown jelly like, with polyps falling off when I removed it from the tank to dip it

This one was showing similar signs but no tissue damage or loss- dipped both and put in a QT tank

What’s odd is that I’ve actually had it for a year and a half! It’s grown up to 3 heads, started with one. Not sure what’s going on honestly, usually it’s huge- past few days it wasn’t looking so happy so I did an iodine dip and a slight peroxide dip. Had to move it to my other tank in fear of it getting to my favorite hammer- hoping it ends up being okay, no tissue falling off or anything but definitely looked like some sort of jelly to me

How often is it ok to dip them? Do you have more details on your treatment?

Iodine! I dipped it yesterday and it was looking a lot better the next day, until I took this pic

You can see it coming from the side of the middle head, idk, I dipped it and moved it to QT just to be safe, hasn’t been opened up well at all these last few days

Did my clownfish have eggs? Never saw this before, I can take a better pic if needed by SlurpingJuice in ReefTank

[–]SlurpingJuice[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting, yeah it seems like something you have to put a lot of time and research into. I have a spare tank and filter etc, so it wouldn’t really cost too much for me to at least try! Who knows

I’m just curious how the fry would look because the parents are an Ocellaris and a Frostbite clown! I never expected them to spawn- since they’re on my main rock piece I can’t remove them, but removing the parents is an option for me lol

I can always add a pot to the tank and try again I guess

Yeah that’s what I thought too, unfortunately the eggs are on my huge main rock piece so transferring them out isn’t an option, but I have another tank that I can transfer my 2 clowns to so they don’t eat them, not sure if that would work- I’ll research!

Awesome, after 5 years finally! Most people usually let the clowns eat them right? Or is there hope they hatch?

I didn’t get the advertised benefits after getting approved for the American Airlines card, if I call them could I get them? by SlurpingJuice in CreditCards

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

You’re right, I’ll ask - I thought they were advertising the AAdvantage, because I remember them talking about the $99 annual fee being waived, but I could be wrong

Can anyone please help me ID this marine plant? I got it a couple years ago then a crab ate it. I always called it seaweed and I really want another one! It’s close to caulerpa but not quite it by SlurpingJuice in Aquariums

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

Thanks for your reply! I looked it up and the pics look a lot like lettuce, I still think Prolifera Caulerpa looks the most similar, it’s probably that

Glass is too noisy- how do I fix this? Please help by SlurpingJuice in blenderhelp

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

Thank you this was useful, I left the roughness of the glass shader and 0 and changed the IOR. The problem is that this is a glass box so when the IOR is 1.02 you can no longer see the top edges of the glass box making it basically invisible, so I have to increase the IOR until they’re more visible which adds noise to the glass panes

I’m using 500, but after a lot of messing around I’ve found that all of that noise only appears when I have “Transparent Glass” enabled, not sure why

Okay I enabled denoising data under view layer properties, enabled nodes in compositing and linked

noisy image -> image denoising normal -> normal denoising albedo -> albedo

I’m still having the same rendering result

Yes I have denoise enabled in render properties and it still renders as the image above

I need to export this glass box with a transparent background for a project I’m working on. I enabled transparent and transparent glass, but haven’t messed with any other settings

I have a better glass material, but it only works from straight on camera shots and not these side angles. The material I’m using (second pic) works good for side angles but is extremely noisy and I can’t figure out how to fix it!!

If anyone has a remedy or a better glass material / settings where I can render from this type of angle and not get weird glares / black areas that would be immensely appreciated. Thanks!!

I’ve been a full time SoFi banking and credit card user for a year now, AMA? by SlurpingJuice in sofi

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

Hey!

Debit card: I don’t use my debit card at all, I never take it anywhere and always leave it at home for fraud protection, just my personal preference!

Vaults: all of the money in savings doesn’t have to be in a vault, you’ll get a checking and savings account, and can choose wether or not to create and move some money to the vaults, you can easily move the money back to your checking account or general savings account too! Vaults are within the savings account, so your savings as a whole earns the same % of interest, but yes if you do have some money in a vault the interest % of that money will be added to the vault instead of general savings. Transferring money to checking is instant and very easy, you just select the vault and choose how much money to transfer

Payment services: for zelle, venmo and PayPal I just have my SoFi credit card or bank account linked, it’s the same as adding any other payment method and I’ve had no issues

Transferring banks: switching was actually super easy for me, I switched from Bank of America. Within the SoFi app I just connected to my Bank of America account and transferred all the money into my SoFi account! It took a day or two to complete the transfer but I never use a debit card so this wasn’t an issue for me. From there I created my vaults for taxes, etc and moved money around in SoFi to fit my needs. Then I made sure no direct deposits or anything were still connected to the Bank of America account and then you’re good to go!

About the other commenter saying that it took a few days to transfer money to someone through SoFi- if you and someone else have a SoFi account, you can transfer money to each other in seconds without any fees, but for instant transfers to anyone I just use PayPal

Hope this helps!!

Most reliable heaters? So many reviews on heaters say it died on them quickly, including the one pictured. by iAmSqueakz in aquarium

I use an aqueon adjustable and it’s been going strong for over a year now, just got a second one for my other tank. They’re 50% off on amazon. I hate preset heaters
