My 2 sons hardly know which end of a hammer to hold (Hammer a tool you use to bang things with apart from Pauls supermodels you can't bang them with a hammer or they will cry).
My Son n Law doesn't know which end of a screwdriver to use to hammer in a nail with.
This isn't true. Cancer is a 'disease', toxins in the tank cause 'disease'. When your fish starve that is a 'disease'. If you're trying to suggest that your fish never die of infectious disease (parasites or bacteria) - I apologetically don't believe you can document that.
I kind of think I already did.
But if you can't show me a quarantined tank, not one, with old spawning fish where the fry live, that is at least anecdotal proof that it doesn't work well. I proved it with pictures. I see no pictures of that in any quarantined tank. What other proof can I use? Do you want to sleep in front of my tank for 15 years?
They do that because they are studying diseases just like they use sterile rats to study. It is not proven to work. It is just as you say anecdotal. But my system is.Scientific proof of what? That is anecdote. There is a reason that scientific institutions use quarantine methods in their aquaria. Thats because its been proven to work.
This picture was taken in 1999. That fireclown on the far left is still with me and was about 15 years old there. I would think some parasites would have taken him out by now.
I define quarantine as time alone from other fish in a bare or semi bare tank decorated with plumbing fittings fed food without living bacteria in it and devoid of pathogens.since you dont clearly define exactly what you mean by quarantine its hard to know exactly what you're talking about.
It seems many of them get out because of too many diseases.. The reason most fish don't die of 'old age' is that most people don't keep aquaria as long as you do. They get tired of the hobby, they get tired of the fish and get new ones
I would suggest to you that most of the 'problems' with certain types of quarantine result from people not doing it correctly.
They also don't use my method correctly
I would suggest that I'm lucky.
Why not, People tell me that all the time.
I think its natural and helping the fish to stay alive because that method is "proven" to keep fish healthierI think what you did is 'cruel' and unethical.
