Yes people who have done the research understand that. See the point. I dont know too many people making amazing reefs in 1.020 salinity or 1.030. Now if you have basic knowledge of what is an acceptable salinity then you know there is a range to plan in. He is saying do some research (which would show you acceptable parameters) and if youre snagged or confused ask questions. That aside I don't mind answering questions common or dumb. Just understand what the op is saying as well. Sometimes questions are so common or normal you think "seriously it's common knowledge to know before starting a tank". But as stated I'd rather answer the questions and help success than not and have failureExcept - a lot of people use varying temps and salinity with great success. IMHO - the longer you are doing this - the more you will realize that in reality, things tend to do ok. Its also my opinion - that most of the 'disease' in the supply chain - is in fact toxins and issues with shipping causing messed up fish - that will die with or without QT or anything else.
And watch out for the reef n a z i s !This makes me a bad person, I think.
Dude... all of the real problems in life- politics, religion, taxes, social issues, crime, war, climate, etc- and you're allowing yourself to suffer angst over the tang in my tank. Priorities.So, it may not really be my business, except that it is. There is currently a ban on fish collection in Hawaii. How many thousands of yellow tangs do you think have died in the tanks of people who couldn't be troubled to do some basic research before buying one? Chances are there wouldn't be a need to ban fish collection if this did not happen so much. Call me judgmental if you want, but I feel it is absolutely imperative to stress the importance of good pet care to new reefers. At the rate things are going, the reefing hobby may be banned entirely.
A must watch:
Its all good man haha but wow you had me really worried for a moment until I looked around the internet .Honestly it might have been. The original article I read has been removed. Basically sounded a bit blown up and dramatic… about how they are outlawing anything that is not Tank bred/grown/raised. And it wasn’t on a “city” level that they mentioned more like a state(?! I don’t know what you all call the subdivided areas in Canada). But whatever. Guess that just goes to show how messed up our world is. And I guess I just helped murky the waters… my bad!
Forgive a young lad who can now not trust his own eyes?!
You can stay worried - it didnt get deleted - but it was just a draft. (for Winnipeg)Its all good man haha but wow you had me really worried for a moment until I looked around the internet .
We are divided up into provinces in Canada which are similar to your states in the USA
Have a good one !
That's an interesting plan.I think I've come up with a strategy
Not handing out advice to OPs with less than 500 total messages on R2R... toooooooooo green. They need to ripen up
Then not argue with ppl with over 5,000 messages. Too salty and stuck in their ways
This makes me a bad person, I think
.
you made my day.Dude... all of the real problems in life- politics, religion, taxes, social issues, crime, war, climate, etc- and you're allowing yourself to suffer angst over the tang in my tank. Priorities.
The answer - in short - is no - people are not tired about it, Pharaoh. The reason - if I search this forum and read xxxx posts - I can get opinions from 2010 and beyond. I do not want that - I want the most current opinion. So - in general - I am not tired of reading new questions. I will say - it would be nice if more people would use the 'advanced search option' - which most people probably do not know exists - searched for the newest posts.I'm done with this thread. I was just basically asking if experienced ppl were tired of reading and responding to newbie questions when obviously they have NOT done enough research to care for a tank in the first place.
Any hobby taken seriously needs the person to do their own research and not rely on forums to bail them out of every situation.

Right but how dare you for not knowing muzzle velocity of a 300 wsm before you buy one? People are either here to help, ask questions, or take their expertise to the grave. If you are the latter then they can stay on the wtb and wtt/wts section."Is it OK for me to clean my gun when I haven't checked if it's still loaded?"
"Is it OK for me to store all my ammo right next to my fireplace?"
How are you supposed to find an exact algae line and how to fight it if you don’t understand what it is? I had a weird algae that I got people scratching their heads on. The forum wasn’t able to help and luckily it went away. Granted if it is any of the major 3 algae’s then yeah but I just don’t see how anyone can study them all out and know without having experienced it before.I'm done with this thread.
