Yeah its good. I use it every two days... I have heard that it reproduces in the tank to some extent. It seems to me that it would get filtered out by everything that eats it faster than it could reproduce though. Anyone have an info on this? What about getting skimmed out?

The distinction I have been making is very obvious, and stated explicitly: A highly educated (masters,ect.), experienced, scientist vs. a hobbyist. Defining a scientist is a dialogue that we had a couple pages ago, and was a tangent, not the point of what we have been talking about, but in case...

Nikon wrote- "LOL..you cant be serious" HAHAHA! this was my line. I said to you a few posts ago, I guess it made an impression on you.

Well its obvious I have said some things that have made you emotional. But you do not respond to almost every point I make that disproves your logic, you select insignificant aspects of my response when you feel you can disagree. I'm not sure what you think I would have researched, and I type...

Sure, I'll quote you. Why am I "high and mighty?" Because I make more sense than you? I'm not trying to be arrogant, just to make sense. Not the answers to world problems, just corrections for your misstatements and mischaracterizations of my statements. "Let me guess "dood" we still need an...

I'll bet you think we have a democracy too. Its a representative republic. hey dood, you can't be serious. Now you are trying to tell me that just about anyone can run the country, where to start... first of all one politician doesn't run the country, even the president. Second, a citizen...

What if "they" are? Should "they" then still pretend that "they" are not? "They" are not one person. Some may be annoyingly arrogant, its ridiculous to say that they all think a certain way though. We don't know each other. These people involved in this discussion might be more arrogant than...

You have come out on the losing end of every exchange we have had, making false statements, week arguments and pretending not to understand simple things that I have said is now your way to feel right... this is the latest example of that. Anyone who has read this thread would know that that...

Thank you for making many argument even more relevant. Had a bad experience? Bitter? Fine. Why do you say "all" scientists? Its not just you, many (not all) people that are into reef keeping are the type that love to feel smarter than all those stupid sheep stumbling around K-mart. We love to...

I assume that you have the ability to do that, but seems ridiculous. A debate is not harmful or scary. I am not being uncivil, I am responding to critics. Nothing outrageous is happening, its just people disagreeing.

Am I "one of those scientists?" HaHaHa.. that's funny. Some out side of a degree CAN be qualified and accurate, of course. It just not likely. That's obvious. Its about very hard work for decades, being in an environment with other smart people who challenge you and inspire you, studying the...

Let me make something totally clear that was totally clear before your week criticism. It was a list of different quotes.

Yes I did do that genius. I did that on purpose. That was the point. It was not a secret. To show that there were many different quotes from bitter people who wish to condemn scientists for stupid reasons as if they are all one person, instead of acknowledging the countless contributions they...

Lordnikon, you wrote, "hey dood, no one ever talked down on scientists...thats the most B.S. statement i ever heard..." hey dood, did you read the thread? here's a few examples... Then you wrote, "The question is at hand, can hobbyist contribute to science! The answer is yes, this is not...

I was very clear on my position in my last post. One side of the fence, but communicated with my own ideas, a discussion, not a single statement or point. You have contradicted your self by denying that had called my argument inane, and then admitting it when I called you on it. Double...
