Be careful what you say to other reefers- Be very clear

My original post states i set him home with carbon to assure water is purified and polishes the cloudiness

my bad

Yes, like working in IT, have to be sure to be very clear and make sure both parties are on the same page. This reminds me of the NOS motorcycle thread many years back. Anyone remember that one? Guy put NOS energy drink into his tank thinking it was fuel additive.

OH MY GOD!
at first I thought you just thought it was NOS but it was the fuel additive, oh my god! that's hilarious! I haven't seen that one!

 

[Sabellafella]

Oh man! Were they flaming hot cheetos =) I feel bad for laughing also, but hopefully the tank recovers. I cant really see it causing big big problems.

Not surprised considering we add vodka, vinegar and feed our fish nori seaweed. But was so funny.

 

[BeejReef]

I’m surprised he didn’t ask more questions like what is the correct dose of Cheetos? Do you use the whole large bag or will one of the snack size bags work? Is there any benefit of using flaming hot Cheetos or will the regular ones work best?

That would be my thought too. I mean, anyone can mis-hear something. If I was speaking to a reefer I truly trusted and respected and they told me cheetos was the ticket, I'd be down for it. I would ask about the dosage and if they belonged in a media bag or a reactor though.. lol.

Dude. {face palm} Reefers are a strange bunch. This is the funniest thing I ever read on R2R.

 

[Lorenzo Angotti]

Yes with it being cheesy, it could have added calcium to the water, who needs a calcium reactor

I always try to almost over explain stuff sometimes to avoid miscommunication. The problem I have though is I can tell someone something, and then they'll tell me it back a little bit later like I didn't know or hear about it. It's like my voice is a subconscious thought they had or something.

@vetteguy53081, man, I thought you said you weren't gonna tell anybody! I really thought my fish would go for the crunchy variety... ;Shifty I'm selfish. I keep the flaming hot ones just for me.

;Hilarious ;Hilarious ;Hilarious

I myself am partial to the Jalapeño flavor.

Yaaaassss!! Those are great!

I wonder if cheetos might be a new flavor ingredient for Reef Chili...

 

[LOVEROCK]

LOl ! dangerously cheeesayyyy

 

[Malevolent]

I was just going to ask if you could report back on his nitrate situation. I have a bag of Cheetos standing by =p

 

[W1ngz]

Can we invite this person to R2R so they have a place to double-check in formation, but make them have a username of Cheeto?

 

[JCOLE]

It's funny but just think what if he threw in the Cheetos and his corals doubled in size. Cheetos would be going for $500 a bag on ebay right now.

LOL #truth I see some of the things we do in this hobby and I wonder how someone first decided to try those ideas out. I'm sure some innovations were actually mistakes that went terribly RIGHT for the person who discovered them.

 

[Bryce M.]

yeah I'm going into town for a run soon, waiting for the report if I need to buyout all the cheetos

Yep. That is how we have Gatorade and Chicken Wings.
