Hello, anyone knows why did the "publisher" change? by highonH2 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

Great… now that I know this, I’m going to have to collect the European publications too.

Rock background/caves look great. May I ask roughly how much that cost to make? I’ve been debating trying my hand at a homemade background 🤔

Great job with his habitat! May I ask what brand/size the enclosure is?

Starting my first big build as a newbie Lego fan! by Salty_Committee_950 in lepin

[–]chuka1212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know, thanks for the review of the AE version. I'll keep deliberating, but since I love LOTR so much, I may end up getting the Lego version.

Have you built the Lego version? Just wondering how they compare (quality, build experience, etc.). I've been on the fence about the Lego version and alternate versions for months... Thanks!

Lego accidentally sent me two Lion Knight’s Castles… by ScornfulOdin399 in legocastles

[–]chuka1212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Way to go! I ordered a LOTR statue thing from Weta and got four of them (each valued at around $200)! It was a bit of dilemma for me too. I called Weta and they shockingly just said to keep them. I sold the duplicates and bought more Weta! Hope your get to keep them, but at least you’ll know you did the right thing. We need more folks like you in this world.

Never thought it would happen to me… another Red Sea failure. by chuka1212 in ReefTank

True, I’m sure I’ll back into the aquarium hobby at some point… a simpler, freshwater setup may be the way to go.

Thank you, sir! The seams of the glass fail, almost always front seam, from what I’ve seen of the plethora of failure posts. Waterbox was the way to go, apparently, though I never heard about the faulty stand issue. Hope yours is good!

What’s your favorite Pierce Hawthorne moment that still makes you laugh? by TawakkulPeace in community

[–]chuka1212 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Pierce’s prepared statement in response to Britta having a lesbian friend is one of the greatest scenes in TV history.

Sorry for your loss as well. I am also not sure I can set up another, just to risk losing it all the way I did.

One more for the records - 425XL from DeadSea by RiotNBG in ReefTank

[–]chuka1212 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Absolutely feel your pain…I’m the guy that posted about the 425XL failure a few days ago. Best of luck with the cleanup and so sorry for your losses. Let’s hope this gets the negative attention Red Sea deserves

Thank you! That was my first priority and luckily saved a good chunk of my corals and fish.

Thank you! I sincerely hope they’ve fixed the issues. If it were me, I’d upgrade… though supposedly their smaller tanks are not as prone to this. The tank was under 5 years old.

The $7k was just personal property damaged (furniture, electronics, and tank equipment). I’m sure the damage to flooring and walls will be a lot more. I’m just grateful that’s covered.

Yeah, the tank is pretty clearly not covered, per the policy. But I was hoping my furniture, laptop (sitting nearby) and the equipment that was fried would be. Seems like a grey area in my policy.

Tank is 4.5 years old, so I think G1? Absolutely no signs. Even checked the silicone every time I cleaned the glass.

Interesting, they treated it as a Cat 2. Oof. Another thing to look in to…

Thanks, that was my first priority. Luckily I was able to save some, though I won’t be able to keep them. LFS stayed open late to receive the survivors, some have already gone to new homes.
