Good your going to quit. If Steve was just a wholesaler he would have been asked, I don't expect a spin doctor, but in case you didn't read the posts I expected more considering it was on MSNBC. You can tell me all day long he did the right thing, which he did, but I want this to change not...

I believe when I watched it the concern was for the fish. Honestly why Steve was asked to be on the show is irrelevant, the discussion is the key. The topic was the potential negative impact that an increased demand could have on increasing cyanide use for collection. He was there for what you...

I look at this similarly to the pharmaceutical industry and animal testing at least from a public perspective. When stating a case you simply state that ethical companies do not use animals the test their products, while others test and kill thousand of innocent animals. I don't think that...

Steve, I understand the circumstances, and of course hindsight is 20-20 whether you agree with me or not... Without a doubt the exposure was not negative, so it will probably only be able to do good for all of us. Thank you for that... Dizzy, whoa now. Why in the world would I want everyone...

I may not be liked for posting my opinion, but I thought his interview was lacking.... He has good intentions, but I don't think he knew how to get his message across. Those of us that know what cyanide does to fish, short term and long term, have a serious problem with it. We are all in a...

I figured I'd chime in to help a little before you message was lost to the 2nd page . I'm by no means an expert, but I'll give you some base info that I remember. They are not reefsafe along with all other non-pygmy angels. They also need a substantial portion of their diet in plant matter...

I would be lost after reading all these posts if I didn't know what I was doing. Everyones posts are accurate and have good advice, but everyone says something a little different and thats gotta be confusing. I'll just try and sum some of this up and make it simple. First you should do a month...

I have heard many different things on the pros and cons of biowheels. I'm most concerned with them producing nitrates. How much of this is true and how big of a difference do they make in one way or another?

Nope, You should be just fine for most softies with VHO's however, you must consider that someday you will walk into a fish store and see a SPS that you just have to have. You'll then wish you got the halides then.

Just a couple of other thoughts Just as Diablo said, it will probably end up the anenome on one side and corals on another, any that don't fit, will probably die. There really isn't anything that can't prevent you from being successful in a 37, as quillen states, but you will have a tank for...

The more and more I read these damn posts the more nervous I get. I use ignornant and bought a rio about oh 60 months ago. Its been fine, but Im getting more and more scared or failure. I have a Sen coming, I just have a wait a little while. I'd die if the damn thing blew right before the new...

Personally I would rather pay the box charge. You know that if the shipper has to pay for the box your ARE going to be paying for that box one way or another. Thats just simple business. The box charge is really a way not to rip you off if it is used properly. If you are buying ten things and...

One thing that I noticed was not spoken of is the size of the anenomes vs the tank size. Most anenomes that will host a clown or are even availible for the consumer are just going to plain get to big for a 37 gallon. The tentacles from the anenome will most likely kill your corals once they come...
