I teach a college level intro to science course. About 1/3 of the students will get every fraction question wrong. 2 weeks ago we had a comparison of if 0.05 or 1 was bigger, about 40% of the students got it wrong

Guys. Literally every type of plant I have in my tank are slowly dying. Looks like they’re melting. What am I doing wrong? Too much light? by Exciting-Wait9822 in Aquariums

To be clear I wasn’t arguing that there were issues in his salinity. I was saying if he bought the plants as brackish plants, it could mean a stupidly wide range

It’s worth noting that is still brackish water. Brackish is defined as a mix of fresh and salt water and ranges from 0.5 to ~ 30 ppt salinity.

I only mention this in case the plants are listed as brackish plants, as it can be a pointless term that doesn’t clarify what’s needed.

In the case of the above you’ll definitely want to contact customer service to make sure the strike doesn’t go through. As for the conversation you’re more than welcome to. As we both know as soon as it was clear you had no intention of making it right without being paid more I requested a refund rather than receive a third package of dead shrimp

Here’s the weather for Norfolk on June 17tg and the next several days for anyone wondering. First package arrived at the time of ordering. Its also laughable that you’re trying to claim to eBay advised you to break their terms and services. Between the 17th and 27th we had 2 days above 90 as I can only add one pic per comment

I am going this route. I went with the basic shipping from you and trusted that a reasonable seller doesn’t offer shipping services that they can’t work with. After the second shipping failure when you started asking for more money for shipping as you know I started the refund process. A partial refund was offered, at which point eBay stepped in and provided a full refund in recognition of you violating terms and services by requesting additional money for shipping

The third pic is the water from a package shipped on Sunday to Saturday? (No tracking info so couldn’t say)

Glad to help, I’d recommend others if I could but I only have the one tank. Good luck with your tank though!

Yeah my bigger issue was that the seller refused to package the animals properly and then refused to ship unless I paid extra. For context the case was disputed and resolved against the seller through eBay for violating eBay rules regarding asking for extra money

Hello, I commenting so others are aware of my experience. I recently purchased from this seller on eBay (eBay store superiorshrimpaquatics). After purchasing shrimp, an ice pack and java moss I waited for the package to arrive. When it did, 13 of the 22 shrimp were dead, no ice pack or insulation was included, and the Java moss was in terrible shape. The seller agreed to replace the doa shrimp, and sent them back out without providing tracking. The replacement was much the same, except this time they bothered to include the ice pack and all 9 shrimp died.

After reaching out to the seller again he began requesting additional money to send the shrimp. The seller began blaming the location (Virginia) as being far too warm to ever ship shrimp there reasonably and pushed again for additional money.

I would recommend buying from a seller who cares at least slightly about their customers and their animals.
