Whats something you wish you DIDN'T know about reefing?

[Crabs McJones]

I see threads all the time about things people wish they knew about reefing. Or threads related to "if you could go back and give yourself one piece of advice what would it be" ect...
What I want to know is, What about reefing do you wish you DIDN'T know? Is there even anything? Interested to see the responses.

How few Reefers actually make it past a year.

…didn’t know that some of my local reef friends and I share more things in common like cars, sports, investment ideas, DIY, etc

I wish I didn't know the smell of a dead clam or snail.

This has to take the cake.

Or the smell of a tank teardown... gag.

I think snails smell worse than clams. I just pulled a turbo yesterday that was larger than a golf ball.

Things reefing nightmares are made of.

I wish I didn’t know just how deep the influencer propaganda goes

How much room it takes to store all the stuff I buy and use for a few months and then keep around just in case I need it someday.

I wish I didn't know how much money I've spent......

That’s the way companies market their products now. It’s much cheaper than producing ads.

It’s amazing finding out influencers sign NDAs they can’t speak negative about a company or product if they want the free stuff :rolling-on-the-floor-laughing:

I trust gas station food more than those influencers

We're suppose to be keeping tracking? That would be too depressing.

No need to keep track. The frags we sell make more than we ever paid. We all know this

Yeah, I wouldn’t want that at all. I couldn’t look another Reefer in the eye if I had to do that. I would only review a product if I could be myself and provide full disclosure.

You can tell if someone on YouTube is sincere when they offer cheap or DIY solutions when expensive brand name solutions exist.
