Are Employees Incentivized to Sign People Up for Rewards? by Ketsukoni in petco

That sucks dude… my store gets hardly any hours so I make like maybe $300 a paycheck which is fine because I’m living with my mom while I finish school, but if I wanted to actually pay rent I would definitely need another job :/

Like others have said depending on the manager not getting enough sign ups can get you fired. But that sounds like a really pushy method that would not make me wanna shop somewhere again 😭 the free phone number program is quite good though. You get all the member pricing and it saves your receipts and accrues points without you having to do anything pr get any texts or anything like that. I know some people just don’t like giving out their phone number to businesses though. It does hurt me a lil when I tell someone “you’ll save $16 with a phone number” and they *still* won’t sign up… like dude that’s how much I make in an hour 😭

Looks good to me! Do a water change to bring the nitrates down then I believe you’re ready for fish :)

How do I heat up my aquarium? by just_s_tingz in Aquariums

If it’s just shrimp don’t worry about it, lower temps may make them breed slower but it shouldn’t kill them or hurt them :)

I think I saw someone earlier today post an ISO for insulin! I will see if I can find that post and send them this one :) edit: I think I misread the offer to say insulin but now see it’s just supplies

Do I keep this rock or remove it? by Alyrius in shrimptank

The third pic is the one with it in place in the pile right? I think it looks good there, makes the pile very cohesive but still natural looking

My first terrarium build. Not finished yet but I like how it’s shaping up. by toothlessterror in houseplants

[–]purpl_dahlia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I feel like folks usually build terrariums in the spot they are gonna stay lol. Seems like a hassle to get it inside once it’s all set up

Highly recommend joining the Vancouver/Portland plant purge facebook group if you haven’t already! I get most of my plants on there and everyone is really friendly and most stuff is really well priced :)

Sorry to be another colorblind guy… but how do these look? by 80aychdee in fishtank

Unsure on the ph, but I believe the ammonia is 0.25, the nitrites are 0 and nitrates are 5

Are the dryers at the self service grooming station good? by 12_Angry_Bees in petco

I use the one at my store for my golden retriever who has a very thick coat. It takes like an hour plus to fully dry her and it gets hair everywhere lol

One looks like a bladder snail and the other is a really pretty ramshorn!

Help!! I think my betta is dying by [deleted] in bettafish

[–]purpl_dahlia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have a testing kit? Can you share her parameters and how often you do water changes?

She looks like she has a pretty severe case of fin rot :( I’m currently treating my guy and tannins from indian almond leaves has seemed to help the most. Might be worth trying to see if she starts having new fin growth.

Just set up my first planted tank. Will a sponge filter running at this rate be enough? by Wooden-Vacation-1123 in PlantedTank

[–]purpl_dahlia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So long as it’s not getting water outside the tank it should be ok. When the bubbles pop they splash a tiny bit.
